Have you contacted RedHat support, since you're paying for it with your RedHat subscription??

And if you're not paying for support, and since this is a new installation, I'd suggest loading CentOS (essentially the same as RHEL, but community supported). CentOS also has a more 'user-class' hardware database. RHEL is geared towards servers, so things like sound/wireless/etc, that you would find on a laptop are often missing, while CentOS supports them, and may get everything working right out of the box.
