it so I'm posting it again.
I lost every device out of my /dev/sound folder due to some freak
Mandrake snafu, so I have no sound in Gnome. Can someone tell me
how to reinstall the sound devices? Having to reinstall Mandrake in

Riker,
You need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst for that.
Just remove the "offending" entry, and after the next boot you're fine.
Contrary to LILO, you do not need to run anything for the changes to take

Hello, again!
I really screwed something up on my wife's Linux box (yes, she loves
Linux and now she hates me!) and need to reinstall. It's a duel boot
system with Win ME. If I do a fresh install of Linux, will it still see

First, thanks for responding! Actually, I can boot the system and

Yes, it was an IDE burner, and I'm really beginning to believe this is
how I screwed things up. In what file/directory can I find the menu.lst

I'm reinstalling Linux due to stupidity. Now however, the installation
stalls at "formatting hda1" it has already formated the other
partitions. Hda1 is the / partition and so far it has been sitting there
for an hour doing a 5-10 second blink on the HD light. Any suggestions?
