Actually, once I thought about this. What if I, for instance, reburn
Redhat's CD, but instead of their kernel put the Speakup-powered one? This
means I could have a Speaking installation CD of Redhat, right? Now, in the
boot part of CD installation, one could implement a LILO which could speak
through the serial port and have the entries for all known to SPeakup
synthesizers. After users choose the ones they need, LILO would load
necessary kernel. Do you think, such a scheme would work?
Best,
Vic
