<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi list. My name is Ameer Armaly, and
I'm a newbe to linux. I've never successfully loaded linux before, for
reasons forgotten. Anyway, I tried it again, but now I have windows xp
which doesn't support real mode dos, so a boot floppy was needed. I
wrote a bood disk wit windows rawwrite. It booted with "boot:", after
which I hit enter without typing anything. It sat for about five minutes,
saying "mounting root...". Does anybody know a way to help? Also, is
zipspeak updated to the latest speakup and slackware?</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
