If you install to HD, HD is always automatically mounted..

If you want speed and ability to edit any file, go with traditional Debian-style HD install
If you want to upgrade easily, take frugal HD
Choice between grub and lilo? Take grub.. Easier to configure

Thank you so much  for all of your help. I'm running it off through the HD using grub. How do i get it to reckonize my speakers though it doesn't seem to pick them up. Do i need to install drivers?

ps: thanx for all your help and you earned my respect and i'd pay you if i wasn't 13 :(.

There is no way for a computer to know if speakers are there.. Line-out is one-way..
Unless you have usb speakers?
Is your sound card recognized on boot?

No i don't have usb speakers. I don't think it's reconizing my sound card. My sound used to work when i had windows 98 and then i formated it when it stopped working right.
