bootdisk problems

[Janina Sajka]

Hi:

Until just a few moments ago, the floppy diskette images linked
from the Speakup Modified Home Page were ONLY for use with stock
Red Hat iso images anc CD ROMs, and not for use with the iso
images for the Speakup Modified. Did you fail to read the notice
about this on that page? Or maybe you used ftp and didn't see the
README?

In any case, you will find the floppy disk images you need in the
/images directory of the first CD ROM. And, as if you need to
download floppy diskette images, you'll find two sets now on the
web site, one for stock Red Hat media, and the other for the
Speakup Modified iso files. Please be careful to get the correct
images. They're clearly labeled, and now they're properly linked
from the home page.

Sorry for the confusion. There have been several troubling issues
with the more recent Red Hat release, but we believe they've know
been resolved. If you find other problems, please let us know.
