Just installed Debian 3.1!

[jaffar at jeffstudio.net]

Hi.  My experience was altogether different.  I booted up the disk, but 
there was no activity at all.  I tried to do an install with the first 
binary iso alone.  Perhaps I forgot a step or two?  Cheers!

Hi there, well, the subject line says it all.
I must say, with the new speakup 2.0, combined with the new debian 
installer, installing this beast was very easy.
All the menu highlighting worked perfectly, and everything went without a 
hitch.

I'll just point out one thing though. I used a braille note in remote synth 
mode to do the install! How? used the bns driver.
It worked, but the speakup interupt keys didn't work, and the volume went 
waaay down on the unit, even with the volume set at its maximum.
Maybe this could prompt Keynote SA driver development? Or perhaps someone 
with some time and knoledge could modify the current keypc driver?

Also, what should I look out for when doing updates? should I prevent kernel 
upgrades? or how will this work. I used the netinst cd to do the install.

Thanks for reading,
Arthur.
