I'm trying to get oss sound modules compiled into kernel.
make xconfig was easy enough to get through.
instructions say to then make dep and make bzImage or bzlilo.
1. I get errors on this, because I'm above cylinder 1023 on my dual-boot
drive. I boot linux from floppy with lilo. Error message suggests using
lba32 option, but it doesn't say where or how to use it. How do I get
around this?
2. Instructions say next to install the kernel. Is that done by typing
make install? In addition to the make install that comes after make
modules? (see below)
3. I haven't been able to create a lilo boot disk for awhile. I'm using
Yast2 to configure boot mode, and it keeps telling me that my floppy is
write protected and it can't access the boot sector. I've tried this
with new floppies that have been formated with fdformat /dev/fd0.
Thanks for any insight.
Here are the instructions I'm looking at:
> 1. To make the kernel sound modules, cd to your /usr/src/linux
> directory (typically) and type make config, make menuconfig,
> or make xconfig (to start the command line, dialog, or x-based
> configuration tool).

> 2. Select the Sound option and a dialog will be displayed.
>
> 3. Select M (module) for "Sound card support".
>
> 4. Select your sound driver(s) as a module. For ProAudio, Sound
> Blaster, etc., select M (module) for OSS sound modules.
