You can install the all testing debian packages of
0.9.beta7 except the alsa-modules. Instead install
alsa-source-xxx.deb, untar the alsa-driver archive
in /usr/src/modules, run "make-kpkg modules_image"
from /usr/src/linux and install your new alsa-modules
debian package.

Well, yes, actually you have to grab the CD as the Audiophile
is not connected directly to the CD-ROM drive. But if you use
for example xmms with the cdread plugin, the grabbing happens
in realtime and no data is written to the harddisk. "apt-get
install xmms-cdread" is your friend.
