If this is the login prompt that appears just after bootup, type in lisa, hit return, then type in your password. If you haven't set up a user account, though (probably not), your login name is "root". Use that followed by the root password, which should have been set during the installation. After you're logged in, type: "man useradd" You do not use "cdrun.exe" in Linux. This file is a Windows file. Your soundcard is probably supported under Linux, so don't worry.
