In either grub's menu.lst or lilo's lilo.conf, depending on which
one you're using, change the devfs=mount to devfs=nomount
In lilo's case, you'll then need to run 'lilo' as root and re-boot to
make the change effective. In grub's case, you just need to re-boot.
As to your sound, I'm using the same ac97 chip and 8.1 with devfs
enabled and the ac97 works great. Was automagically configured during
install. I did change the slider in Control Center | Sound | Sound
Server, Sound IO tab over to the left to increase cpu usage and
improve sound quality. But I've got'a 1.55ghz Tbird.
