Hi! Sean,
This laptop can't touch the bios, the rebuild kernel have not found
the sound card and there is no pcmX driver was attached,
I have checked the sound card resources from MS Win98 was:
Name: CRYSTAL PnP Sound System Codec
I/O: 0534-0537
I/O: 0388-038B
I/O: 0220-022F
IRQ: 05
DMA: 01
DMA: 00
What can I do to make the kernel found the sound card and attached
the pcmX driver?
