Installing linux using speakup?

[Taylor, Carlos Ervin]

Wow!  What a wealth of information.  I'll take a double talk home with
me and try this this evening.  I will probably always have a windows
machine but figured I'd play around with this to learn what I can and
see what its like.  I am also testing the mac OS with speech and am
getting more and more interested in learning about other operating
systems.

Hi, yes go to
http://people.debian.org/~shane/netinst-speakup/
Get that iso. 
Burn it to cd.  The manor you do this will depend on your cd burning
software. 
Then boot your system from the cd.  Note if your system will not boot
from cd you may need some one to check your bios for you and corect that
problem.
Most units running windows 98 or lator will boot from cd.  Then at the
boot prompt witch will not speak type this  speakup speakup_synth=ltlk
Then press enter.  After that you will here the synthasizer report the
kernel init. Now the installer will load make sure you follow the
prompts
key 8 on your num pad is your best friend threw this hole proseager.
This
reads the curant line.  Key five is your second best friend this reads
curant word.  If you review the screen with the speakup commands make
sure you return to where the cursor is before going on.  To do this
press enter on the numb pad.  Hth -----Original Message-----

Yeah, dtlk LT or litetalk will work just fine us speakup_ltlk at the
boot prompt.

As for anything Gnomish you'll have to ask someone else.
