installing speakup

[Jim Ruby]

The problem is I get no menus though.  the last thing I hear is
starting anaconda please wait:
My understand is that anaconda is the graphical install.  I looked in the other concels with ctrl-alt-f1-f7 and I see it is starting xserver or something like that in f1 and f2 or f3 I can crews around in a shell and the rest 
has info, but ttyf7 where the menu should be just is showing blank.

Is there a way to force it to use the text install?
