Steps for configuring FreeBSD 3.x for
use with a SoundBlaster 128 PCI
(Ensoniq ES1370 based) card

MYKERNEL is your own kernel configuration file. See the FreeBSD Handbook for more information on compiling custom kernels.

cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
echo 'device pcm0' MYKERNEL
config -r MYKERNEL
cd ../../compile/MYKERNEL
make depend
make
make install
fastboot /sbin/dmesg | egrep '^(es1|pcm1)' # verify that the card was probed
cd /dev
sh MAKEDEV snd1

Run mixer ( /usr/sbin/mixer ) to adjust the soundcard mixer values which will initially be set to 0.
 

Other Notes :
 add device to your kernel
 device pcm

locate this line in your kernel

device     sn0   at isa? port 0x300 irq 10

change port to 220 and irq 5
compile your kernel
cd /dev
./MAKEDEV snd0
