Does it solve that so called mixed kernel and headers issue? Will it be safe to use the kernel on the boot disk after installation, as I know redhat will copy it's own kernel in off the CD, or do I need to keep from rebooting and compile while I still have speech (if ppp is available in that kernel). Does the compilation with speakup in it turn in to an rpm that I'd have to install with rpm -i? It'll be an experience installing with 1 disk instead of using both a root and boot disk separately. Hopefully I'll be able to use fdisk to get the partitions set up, but I probably can just use the option to skip it and reinitialize the partition I already have, just saving /etc/asound.conf to restore alsa when I get to that.
