Don't have any experience with those cards, but I can say how to
install a linux rpm:
- ensure you have archivers/rpm2cpio installed (it is already
installed if you have installed any linux_base port);
- copy dist.rpm to any empty directory and run a command:
$ rpm2cpio < dist.rpm | cpio -id
- brandelf all binary files (not libraries!):
$ brandelf -t Linux binary_file;
- as root do:
# find * -type d -exec mkdir "/compat/linux/{}"
# find * ! -type d | cpio -pm -R root:wheel /compat/linux
If any non-standard directories for linux libraries are created then run
# /compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig -r /compat/linux
If everything goes well, you may add a pkg-plist and submit a new
port. ;-)

Current default (read: recommended and supported by emulation@) linux
base port is linux_base-fc4.
