Problems booting on Laptop

Hi,
I am having a strange problem with Core 1 on my no name laptop.
Installation completed without a hitch, all devices where detected
correctly. But when the machine rebooted Fedora refused to boot up and
seemed to crash alternately when the firewire or PCMCIA was being
probed/configured.
I removed the "rhgb" from the entry in GRUB. This seemed to solve the
problem as Fedora then booted. But now it refuses to boot and seems to
be getting stuck when the PCMCIA devices are getting configured/probed.
Sorry for my vague description but I am a typical MS newbie.
Here are some details about the devices in the laptop gleaned from
Microsoft.
* PCMCIA controller: O2Micro OZ6933 CardBus
* On board video - S3 Twister - shared memory
* FireWire: Texas Instruments OHCO Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jarrod
