Will everyone having these problems please try something for me and send 
the results to the speakup mailing list?  Sighted people are having these 
problems too so you're not alone.  The research I've done on the web 
recently seems to point at a problem fedora had hanging over from fc5. 
The way around it for the writer I read was to include the nodmraid 
parameter on the boot: line and if any errors happened after that to keep 
hitting the retry button.  One of those retries worked and that writer got 
fc6 installed anyway.  Might those results be replicable?

  To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.

I made myself a new batch of FC6 CD's.  Booting up for the install, I tried

text speakup_synth=ltlk nodmraid

and in the end got the same nonsense about inserting disc -99.  

Sorry about the bad news.  Alternatively, tell me if I did it wrong.

Al

p.s. What's nodmraid?

dmraid if memory serves is dynamic memory raid.  Unless turned off it will 
be tried and used if raid controllers and disks are on your system.
