I agree with Randy. This is easily found if one searches. Most of your
questions do appear to indicate you are just asking questions without
looking for the answer first.

And this one is found in the same place as the first question.

A little hint to your first two questions. Look in /etc there is one
file that will solve the whole thing. It has to be set up correctly
with another one in another directory for a proper boot. The book does
touch on the file you need to modify but it does not tell you
everything about how to configure it.

I have heard that HAL is going away. udev seems to work well in place
of HAL. I do not know what the overall Linux community is planning
with its planned replacement for HAL.
