Hi John and others, I believe this could be slightly dated, do you still 
have to do a modprobe speakup_soft, followed by running espeakup to start 
software speech in the latest grml?

Yes there are a few problems still.

I use grml for this. See www.grml.org.  I wrote a wiki entry  on using
the accessibility features of grml on the wiki of the International
Association of Visually Impaired Technologists. The page is here:
http://wiki.iavit.org/index.php/Accessing_grml

Grml has some access issues. It's not perfect. However, if I were to
build my own rescue disk, I'd start with grml. They encourage people to
build their own disks and include a tool for doing that.  I think the
tool is called grml-live or something like that. You can google that.
But in my job as the manager of the high performance clusters at the
University of Wisconsin Math department, I always just use generic grml.
I have not found it necessary to modify it.
