It got through the kernel this time but then would not find hard drives 
when I cold booted again.  I can try compiling the kernel again (with the 
proper sound support this time).  Why is compiling the kernel harder than 
compiling another large program (ghostscript or lynx)?

Do I really need to 'make dep'?  It compiled without, after getting stuck 
on hamradio with (I had deleted the hamradio and some other irrelvant 
source code).  I suppose I ought to compile and THEN delete.
