RE: alsa in livecd stage1: msg#00007

Subject: RE: alsa in livecd stage1
I use Alsa in my stage 1 and it is compiled as a module in my kernel. All that 
you need to do is make sure that you have Alsa configured as a module in your 
kernel config file (note: do not forget to add modules for your audio 
hardware), and in your stage 1 spec file add alsa to the livecd/use: flags and 
also add alsa-utils to the livecd/packages list. Also make sure that you are 
NOT trying to load the alsa-driver package in your stage 1, it is one or the 
other and not both. That is all there is to it.
