not working yet

I made the change to the install.bat file as I understood it and can only say that it didn't work.  I will include it in its current state so that someone can determine if I have misread or overlooked something.  I am beginning to suspect something more fundamental with the computer itself.  Right now though, here is the install.bat file from the Debian disks area with the modification to specify the serial port.  Keep in mind that in install.bat, it is all on one line.

dosutils\loadlin linux root=/dev/ram initrd=images-1.44/root.bin speakup_ser=0

I am attempting to do this with no speech program or synthesizer driver program loaded so I have no way of knowing what is going on on the screen so I don't know what additional information I can get to help solve this problem.  I am prepared to look at bios settings but I have no idea of how to access them or if I can do it at all without some sighted assistance.  I don't like continuing to bore you all with this problem.  Thanks much for all the helpful and friendly comments.  I hope that we can figure out what is going on with this so I can see what Linux is like with speech and begin to write my own programs.

Enjoy!
Bruce
