    Hi,

    My name is Deepa. I am relatively new to linux, even
    newer to Debian and the newest to this mailing list.

    I first installed Woody (2.4.18-bf2.4) and established
    sound (alsa), network connectivity and so forth
    successfully. I then compiled kernel-source-2.4.18
    with tweaked kernel configs and added this booting
    option in LILO. I am able to boot successfully with
    either of these kernels.

    I have noticed 2 problems though.
    1. Alsa and kmix complain of a libasound.so.2 file
    missing (no such file or directory). This file (upon
    doing a find) is seen to reside deep in the /opt
    directory and yet, is not being detected. This problem
    is seen upon booting with either of the images.

    2. DHCP does not work in the newly compiled image.
    dhclient complains of 'Protocol driver not attached'.

    This has made me wonder if there is some work involved
    in re-installing certain components. If so, what kind
    of components and how can I have them work no matter
    which debian image I'm running?

    Thanks in advance,
    Deepa
