Thanks for all of your answers... I have figured it out... but I could use some help in finding out how to compile a kernel to implement a sound card. Please spell it out, if answering, as if I just started using Linux. And thank you a bunch in advance....

Get kernel source from a www.kernel.org mirror. cp newkernel.gz /usr/src cd /usr/src tar zxpvf newkernel.gz cp /etc/conf.modules conf.modules.old mv /lib/modules /lib/modules.old cd /usr/src/linux make mrproper make xconfig or menuconfig make dep; make clean; make bzImage;make modules; make modules_install cp /usr/src/linux/system.map /boot/System-2.2.1.map cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzimage /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.1 Add to /etc/lilo.conf, then run /sbin/lilo -v image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.1 label = linux221 root = /dev/hdb1 This is basically a script I use.

First of all I'd recommend reading /usr/doc/HOWTO/Kernel-HOWTO, which does more or less that, but with a bit more explanation !

Newer kernels support FAT32, so you probably need to rev up to 2.2.x or 2.0.36. Mount the disk with type vfat, just like for FAT16 disks. -- Michael Meissner, Cygnus Solutions PO Box 98, Ayer Massachusetts, USA 01432-0098 meissner@cygnus.com

Yes it does...you are probably having trouble determining what your partition is called. ie. hda1, hdc, etc. Christian D Freet <cfreet@eatel.net> wrote in message news:3706afb4.1028843@news.eatel.net... > Does linux recognize FAT 32?

From my experiences, with Kernel 2.0.34 and up you can mount FAT-32 using VFAT.
