the Bios has only a very few options, and disabling sound isn't
one of them. :( since it's a laptop (netbook) it's probably not
possible to yank the sound hardware (which, btw, works fine on
Centos 6.1).
I suppose I could try rebuilding the initial ram disk without the
sound module(s), though I'm not sure I know exactly the right way
to do that....
