could someone please perhaps tell me what is wrong with these lines?
I seem to have linux going, because something scrolls up the screen for a
couple minutes, but I cannot get speech going yet.
You will read 2 lines, one is for zipslack on my 250 Mb zipdisk, and the
other is my removable drive D.
You will notice the lines wrapping, but that is only in this e-mail...
for the zip disk, b:
b:\linux\loadlin b:\linux\vmlinuz root=/defv/hdb4 rw b:\linux\speakup_ser=1
b:\linux\speakup_synth=dectlk
for the removable 200MB harddrive:
d:\linux\loadlin d:\linux\vmlinuz root=/dev/hdb rw
d:\linux\speakup_synth=dectlk_ser=1
Notice that I last tried putting in the path to speakup, but it did not
help.
I have tried it with and without the jfd screenreader, and I have tried it
with and without running dtexp.bat first (to load the dectalk driver).
Thanks.
Sincerely,

Hi Lenny -
I believe you should omit the path information for the last two
parameters on those lines. You should only specify the path for the
first two. In other words, the parameters that start with "speakup_synth
and "speakup_ser" should not have anything else in front of those key
words.
Otherwise they sure look okay to me.

Hi
Yes, your right kernel parameters are instruction to the code within the
kernel itself. Like telling a child to wear their hat and gloves when going
out to play.
Look at the device instruction too, that doesn't look right. I think that
there's a stray "f".

Ok, I'm looking at the removable hard drive option first: You wrote:
d:\linux\loadlin d:\linux\vmlinuz root=/dev/hdb rw
d:\linux\speakup_synth=dectlk_ser=1
This should be:
d:\linux\loadlin d:\linux\vmlinuz root=/dev/hdb1 speakup_synth=dectlk
speakup_ser=1 rw
This is assuming that your Dectalk express is on com2. If is is on com1 you
need speakup_ser=0. It also assumes that you are using the first partition
on your second drive.
Write me if you need more help.
