Do you have x-windows running? If so, run 'make xconfig' in your kernel
source directory. It is a GUI kernel config program and is much more
intuitive than menuconfig. I will assume that you are referring to a SB16
PnP from here on. You want to compile sound support as a module and then
add the correct IRQ, DMA, and addresses in the kernel config. Then you
should compile with 'make dep; make clean; make zImage' when that is done
run 'make modules; make modules_install' and your kernel should be OK.
Copy it to /vmlinuz and reboot. You may then need to use isapnptools to
set-up your sound card. Compile your kernel and then get that package.
Hope that helps,
-Ian
