Adding a BNS

[Janina Sajka]

The easiest way I know is to have separate configurations for each synth 
you plan to use in your lilo.conf. I include two such below by way of 
example. Note the alias = command on each. That makes it possible for me 
to simply type one letter and press enter.

image = /boot/vmlinuz
label=litetalk
alias = l
vga=0X317
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
read-only
root=/dev/hda1
append = "speakup_synth=ltlk hdc=ide-scsi hde=ide-scsi"

image = /boot/vmlinuz
label=bns
alias = b
vga=0X317
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
read-only
root=/dev/hda1
append = "speakup_synth=bns hdc=ide-scsi hde=ide-scsi"

other=/dev/hda3
optional
label=dos

PS: The other element that's very helpful is to have your system speaker 
beep a couple of times to let you know you're at the boot> prompt. Do this 
by adding a couple of \A alias Ctrl-G to your /boot/message file. I have 
two.
