There are CD images and a DVD one for FC6 modified with Speakup, at
www.speakupmodified.org
Sorry if that's where you went for the patch and the 2.19 kernel, so you
know already, but I couldn't tell that from your message.
I and some others couldn't install FC6 using CD's burned from the images
there. I gather people also have had trouble with DVD's. Either might work
fine for you, though. I ended up installing FC6 from my /home partition,
using the DVD image.
If you need to backtrack nonetheless, there are FC3 images. I forget the
exact path to them, but it began from
www.linux-speakup.org
I'm still at the low end of the knowledge spectrum, so somebody else may
give you better advice.
