No, ubuntu-minimal is just a meta-package: it pulls in the things that Ubuntu thinks most people will need, or at least will provide the functionality to make the system work with just about any hardware. When you don't uninstall anything else besides the indicated packages, the system will boot fine. (After installing a system, I always uninstall the things I'll never need, like ppp and dhcp, and this takes ubuntu-minimal with it. It has never harmed.) > modinfo: could not find module snd-opl3sa2 # dpkg -S snd-opl3sa2 linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic: /lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/kernel/sound/isa/snd-opl3sa2.ko linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic: /lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/kernel/sound/isa/snd-opl3sa2.ko So as Lee said, reinstall your linux-image.
