the way I did it. was to make sure I have ALSA, kernel, kernel headers, and
Riefers. before I install it. first of all I uninstall the old reifers and
ALSA as well. Then I install ALSA without any upgrade, no check depency, no
replace package. the same way with kernel and the headers. then finally I
go ahead and do the upgrade and check depency on Riefers. after all that.
then I go to drakConf and then to Drakboot. and do a lilo/grub from there.
then restart the computer up. Shouldnt have any problem if you had followed
the above direction. worked well for me.
