laptops with serial ports

The messages I read on this list before about GRML seemed to say that GRML 
contains software speech, so the actual installation is spoken using 
software speech (if you are installing a distro with it). Admittedly if you 
want something that automatically provides software speech without needing 
to issue any bash commands, then oralux is the one, as GRML you need to 
start speechd-up as I remember. Suppose if you felt like it, you could 
modify GRML to contain a script to start speechd-up though.
