I posted a 'mksnddev' that makes all the devices needed for sound.  It is 
not just that one device you need.

But first check if you already have a /dev/dsp .

I get your error message about /dev/dsp if the sound drivers are not 
installed.  Install them all first, or use a kernel designed for sound 
that has them built in.
