Depends on what you need exactly, but if you cant find a laptop like this, you can:

  • You can use a single Ethernet port that is configured two VLANs that is connected to a small smart switch that breaks those VLANs out to two physical ports.
  • Use any linux supported USB/Expresscard Ethernet dongle.

Another option is to virtualize the RH 5.5 install inside a Linux host that supports more drivers.

Just use any laptop with a single ethernet port and which supports RedHat 5.5. Then add a PCMCIA Ethernet card (about $10).

Your best bet would be to get an ExpressCard Ethernet adapter which would allow you to use just about any laptop that has Linux support.
