RE: installing fc4

RE: installing fc4

[Dawes, Stephen]

Janina,

Do you have a yum repo tree on 
speakupmodified.org

If not, it may not be a bad idea, because then all the user would need
to do is a yum -y upgrade and the kernels would be picked up.
That is of course once the user has added the speakup.repo to their
/etc/yum.repo.d directory.
If you would like some assistance setting this up, I would be glad to
help out.

[Janina Sajka]

Hi, Steven:

SpeakupModified.Org is just my $10 that says I got tired of typing
http://www.linux-speakup.org/ftp/disks/fedora. If you watch the messages
when you load the uri, you'll notice it's just an Apache redirect.

RE: installing fc4

[Steve Dawes]

Sean,
Take a look at a *.repo file found in /etc/yum.repos.d/
In this file you will see a line that starts with
mirrorlist =
This is where you put a list of ftp://, http://, or file:// entries.
This is where yum is made aware of the locations of the many repositories.
man yum will tell you lots of good stuff. There is also some good howto
information. google yum howto and you will find lots.

Re: installing fc4

[Sean McMahon]

That helps.  I didn't know if yum had a more automated way of picking the mirror
then simply han simply editing by hand.  I didn't to rtfm yum because I figured
this type of functionality was a seperate program but I'll go do that
thanks

I see people talking about fc4 while I'm downloading fc3.  I did hear that
fc4 didn't come with speakup.  Would I be able to install it on top of fc3
which does come with speakup without  affecting speakup?

Re: installing fc4

[Janina Sajka]

No. You can choose to do an upgrade rather than a new install, but this
is a choice you make during the installation of FC4, and we still do not
have Speakup Modified FC4 installation images.

To install FC4 you must do something like use telnet for the
installation:

https://www.redhat.com/archives/blinux-list/2005-August/msg00038.html

Once FC4 is installed, Speakup Modified kernel rpms are available.

Re: installing fc4

[Janina Sajka]

The FC3 installation provides speech support during installation. There
is no Speakup Modified Fc4, therefore no speech support during
installation of FC4--and, as ytou note, not speech from an FC4
installation until such time as you upgrade the kernel to a Speakup
Modified kernel.

Obviously, blind users are unlikely to install without speech support,
hence the notion of using telnet as per my previous message.

Re: installing fc3

[doc]

Does anyone already have the four iso files on their server who'd be willing
to either upload them to me or set up an account whereby I can download
them?  Someone with more band width?  I've been downloading them from the
main site and it will take approximately 10 plus days to get them from
there.

Re: installing fc3

I believe so.  I'd even be willing to take it via you send it.  I just don't
have the money to purchase it at this time.  I also, have to get this
chapter concerning linux done for a lan class I'm taking.  I'm currantly
using fc2 which I hear isn't supported anymore.

installing fc3

[Eric Kosten]

Can one use the speakup enabled boot disk, and then use the regular fc3
download iso disks for the install? It beats paying the $23 for four disks
through cheap bytes! Yes, guess I am kinda tight with my money!

Re: installing fc3

[Willem van der Walt]

Hi,
You can install the standard fc3 and then grab and install the modified 
kernel and make your initrd.

If your using the speakup isos you have to use all of them or you have to use
the non-modified isos.  You can't mix and match.  Either use the speakup isos or
don't.

Grrr. You haven't read the installation HOWTO, or you would know this
answer.

The answer, by the way, is "No."

If Linux can't solve your computing problem, you need a different problem.

Re: installing fc3

[Raul A. Gallegos]

I hope that soon we can have torrents available to download.  I would 
offer to do this but the problem there is I don't have the actual isos 
from the speakup site.  I ordered the set from cheapbytes.

Raul,

How's about this for an idea.

Once you get the disks, 
1. make isos of them.
2. rsync your isos against speakup's iso images.
3. create the torents.

I have the disks.  That is what I used to install FC3 at the end of 
March this year.

Easily done.

How will using rsync help if my copies are complete and so are those?

3. create the torents.


Thanks.
