That sounds like device mismatches. Try re-making the standard devices with the new MAKEDEV script from your new sources. [I assume you already did that, but it would be highly desirable to do it again just to be sure you didn't forget, and that you did it with the MAKEDEV that matches the sources you installed. > Jun 27 13:03:14 tracker /kernel: adv1: Invalid baseport of 0x200 > specified.

Instead, copy it to another file (conventionally, the name of the machine, only in upper case, but it really doesn't matter) and edit that. > #sound devices > device pcm0 at isa? irq 10 drq 1 flags 0x0 > device sbc0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 flags 0x15 > #device sb0 at isa? port 0x220 irq 5 drq 1 > #device sbxvi0 at isa? drq 5 > #device sbmidi0 at isa? port 0x330 Your SoundBlaster isn't PnP or PCI, I take it.

Solve the other problems first (removing sound completely from your kernel will probably help you focus on the other problems in the meantime), then move on to sound. If I had to guess, I'd say that you hadn't built the sound devices, either (if you recall, that was my guess about the "fd" errors as well), but that's just a guess. Make sure you've imported the new MAKEDEV from the new sources -- this is covered in the handbook section on building from source -- and do the following: # cd /dev # sh MAKEDEV std # sh MAKEDEV snd0 and see if these problems go away...
