Hi,
I have been trying to install an old Soundblaster 16 unde BL2.  This was the 
classic
ISA board with jumpers.  It works well in DOS (the PC is a Pentium I).  The 
initial-
ization goes well under BL2 and all the requisite modules are loaded.  The 
first odd
symptom is that /dev/dsp, while it exists and has the proper permissions, 
cannot be
opened by programs such as mpg123 and play.  So, I tried to redirect audio 
output to 
/dev/audio.  This worked for a while, and I could play mp3 and wav files.  
After a new
boot, even this did not work.  Has anyone had such problems or does anyone 
have any
idea what might be happening?
