Only works if F*ckin' RH 7.3 will actually boot

(you know what issue I'm having!)

Seriously though, if you want to enable all the bells and whistles;

Install 7.3 - laptop - select individual packages - GNOME
GRAB kernel source
WHACK ALL ImageMagick packages

Download libpcap/tcpdump/ethereal from http://tcpdump.org
Download orinoco-12 driver & patch from http://airsnort.shmoo.com/orinocoinfo.html
Download ImageMagick from http://imagemagick.sourceforge.net/http/
Download GpsDrive from http://www.kraftvoll.at/software/
( Has a Festival build as well for talking Kismet

)

Read the README files for ALL of the above!
Compile/install all of the above.

Then make sure your drivers are working!
Easiest way;
iwpriv eth(x) monitor 1 1
ifconfig eth(x) should show a long MAC address w/ bunch zeros @ the end. If you get errors or no monitor try again.

When you're confident all is well download/compile/install Kismet 2.4.
Edit your config files for your card. READ the docs, and enjoy!
The new kismet_hopper works VERY well so no need to download orinoco_hopper (if using an Orinoco card).
