kflano LQ Newbie Registered: Sep 2004 Distribution: mandrake 10 Posts: 16 Rep:	kernel-multimedia Hi, I am iinstalling the kernel-multimedia-2.6.7-1.mm.7mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm for mandrake 10.1 to enable me to have sound using the on board SB live that ships with Dell Dimensions. I have no trouble installing the kernel, but when i try to boot the kernel it hangs after the boot splash screen comes up. When i switch to a different tty I displays the message Enviroment varible HOME is not defined. I log in to tty1 and run command echo $HOME and I gives the path of my home directory. Has anyone else had the same trouble when installing this kernel, or could anyone point me to a how-to for the installation of this kernel. Cheers
