I have downloaded the RedHat ISO files to my HD from the Speakup FTP site. Now should I burn the ISO files to CDRW using Nero 5.50.90? Should I uncompress the ISO files some how before I burn them? Currently I am using Windows 98 SE with 320MB of RAM. Is there a CDRW disk type I should use?

* Re: ISO files ISO files ADFM ` Janina Sajka @ ` Edward L. Barnes 1 sibling, 0 replies; 10+ messages in thread From: Edward L. Barnes @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: Speakup List Hi Angus, you don't need to uncompress isoes to burn them to cd though this is most likely how you'll want to do the install, I.E., you'll want to do a cd based install so burn the cds before beginning with your tool of choice, it doesn't matter if your tool of choice for burning the disks is Nero, EZ CD Creator, or another tool. And, for what it's worth I've had good experience with Bill's speakupup modified rh media detecting my synth once I specify it on the command line to begin an install using in my case text speakup_synth=acntsa for my accent sa. Of course the synth key word you'll need for your synth will be different but everything up to text speakup_synth= will be the same as what I'd use. Hth and good luck.

But to avoid possible confusion or forget what the mounted file system is really linked to, you should probably use /mnt/iso. Actually, I created the iso mount point for this very purpose. You could create several iso mount points with different names if it became necessary to mount several iso's at once. You can call them whatever you want. They're just empty directories to start with. - -- HolmesGrown Solutions The best solutions for the best price! http://ld.net/?holmesgrown -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFCDRhaWSjv55S0LfERAvjpAJ0XkHXnILEcaiqOAZyc4eBU3qdftwCghFak 544AlEvRH5Pt1Uq+1Qf5v3w= =yGfD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 10+ messages in thread
