Hi, if you have an old dos screen reader such as Jaws For Dos or Vocal Eyes
you can load that before running loadlin and that usually worked in getting
error messages
spoken. However, if it is a kernel panic error of some kind or an error
encountered after your machine loads Linux you will need to get those errors
with sited assistance assuming that Speakup hasn't loaded.
