i can reproduce this problem but haven't yet figured out what's
going on, yet. i think it's my error due to some junk sneaking
onto cd. i'm working on it.

Sadly, I was too optimistic when SATA install succeeded... :-(
This is a report of error messages I've got while booting new system on (and

i'll be working on this today. you are unfortunately running
and old kernel which is causing trouble. (as noted by fernanbolando.)
this is my fault for building a bogus iso.

I'm looking over the audio device formats because I would
like to make a service that is interoperable with the existing
