Does the problem happen with root user?
If it only occurrs when you're using non-root user, then just give that user the permission to access audio hardware by add this user to group audio.

The disk would called hda if you boot bt from usb or an external hard disk.

Check whether you hda3 is active or not, you should mark it active if you want to boot into this partition. Maybe hda3...

have u chrooted into the root folder of HDD? since there is no "sda" in your lilo, I believe that the lilo.conf file used is not the one you wanted to use.
plz give more information :)

nice tut! Thx a lot, im gonna try it out :D

uhm, I think you should use lilo since it's simpler than grub. JUst change a litle bit in the default lilo.conf, you'll get the things done :D

I always get "Bad font path element" error message after update the last package kdelibs (even I update this kdelibs right after backtrack fresh installation). I doubt that it may be my mistake but...

Oh! I got the solution myself, thx you all.
