making grml boot with speech with grml2hd

[Tyler Littlefield]

hello,
I am installing grml with grml2hd, and was wondering what kernel parameters I should pass for swspeak... Is it just swspeak?



Thanks,

Hi,

I didn't have to pass anything, but I don't use software speech.  If in 
doubt, pass swspeak.  The worst you would get is an error in your logs.  
Also, how accessible is grml2hd?  When I tried it, the cursor either 
didn't follow my selection or Speakup couldn't follow the cursor.  I 
needed sighted help because I almost formatted and installed the wrong 
hard disk partition.  I hope that got fixed.  Mika posted here that he 
was unaware of the problem and it sounded like it would be fixed, but 
since it's already installed, I had no reason to try it again.  Also be 
aware that just by the nature of a live CD installation, you'll probably 
end up with lots of extra packages that you don't need or want.  If 
you're on a desktop for example, it still installs a bunch of packages 
for laptops, wireless, Apache, etc.  Hopefully some of those can be 
turned off easily in grml2hd, but I couldn't when I tried.  I was not 
running the final 1.1, I was running 1.1RC1.  Hopefully some of these 
problems have been fixed.  I would like to know how it goes for you.

hello,
I'll try it again in a bit and see how things go.
I can just dpkg --purge the unwanted stuff, when it does install.

Also, grml2hd is set up to remove some software at the end of the install
process, except for the stuff you specify that it should leave.
