i am trying to install linux with my dectalk express.  it is a new synthesiser, and works well with jfw. however, i have tried to install speakup/redhat/debian with no results.  i am using the dectlk disks, but the decexp disk doesn't work either.  in all cases i get a:
loading kernel... message and then the computer ahngs. my dectalk is connected to com1.

any help?
