Woho, hold that horsie. your using much to much space for the swap partition.
fetch a copy of Instalation-HOWTO that will explain swap -> virtual memory usage.
in a nice configuration of 128MB virtual memory, you can use a magantic 2x128
swap partitions. btw, if i'm not mistaken about it (it's been a while) linux cant
acualy use more then 128 space on one swap partition.

try looking with fdisk. if you have one IDE drive it should be on /dev/hda[1|2|3|4],
if
you have 2 drives then /dev/hdc[1|2|3|4]. anyhow once you know with file represent your
fat drives, you can mount it with a -t option. invoke the man mount command for more
details.

You need to chenge the setting of your X server. use /usr/X11/bin/XF86Setup.

For this you probebly have to recompile your karnel and enable sound support.
There is a Karnel-HOWTO. and a very helpfull README file and a Documentation dir in
/usr/src/linux.
That is if you have the karnel source installed, if not fetch one from
ftp.il.kernel.org.
| Forth question, how can I define a modem (56kbps) in Linux.
Again, HOWTOs are now your best friend. http://sunsite.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO,
Serial-HOWTO.
