The fastest way to get speech and/or braille active when booting the cd is to wait for the beep, then type something like: gentoo speakup.synth=synthname or gentoo brltty=something This also should work with software speech; it will start espeakup automatically. The most current isos can be downloaded from http://distfiles.gentoo.org/releases/x86/current-iso or http://distfiles.gentoo.org/releases/amd64/current-iso. Since I do not have 64 bit hardware, testing would be appreciated. If there are any issues, let me know.
