at a loss

Just because you can't get fedora installed, doesn't mean you should
give up on installing gnu/linux. After all, fedora is not the only
gnu/linux distribution out there. There are also:

slackware: <http://www.slackware.com/>,

debian: <http://www.debian.org/>,

gentoo: <http://www.gentoo.org/>

just to name a few. The best thing of course would be if a fedora user
was able to help you solve your problems, and get up and
running. However, if that doesn't happen, look at other distributions
before deciding to quit on gnu/linux. The good news is that there are
slackware, debian, and gentoo users on here as well.

I have copied the installation howto into braille to the letter as ready reference, done all that is required of me at the preparation stage, even did almost nothing else but tried to get FC3 installed for the past 2 days, but nothing seems to work.  I can't even get past the first stage of text installation simply because speakup refuses to talk to my Dectalk express.  I cannot say if my dectalk express is the source of the problem because it works very well with Wineyes and jaws even.  I am totally stuck now and don't know what else I can do.  Unless someone who has installed linux with the dectalk express synth is willing to help me, i'll have to shelf the idea of installing linux, at least for the foreseeable future.  Cheers!
