As for availablity of CDs in Bangalore, You can approach GTEnterprise or even
GangaRams have most of these Linux CDs.
Debain as a hell lot of packages in .deb format. Or else In LINUX ONE ALWAYS AS
THE SOURCE tar.gz files.
Sound Config: Let me tell you that here there's not much difference, its
should be the same, as its a kernel module.
conf.modules,
isapnp
etc.
They have rc.modules if I am not wrong, May be they are modprobeing the things
from here, where as in Redhat its distributed in your rc.sysinit and
rc.d/init.d/xxxxx scripts.
Most of the config things will be the same except for the location of a few
files here and there. This is true for ALL LINUX DISTROs.

Keep :-)
