  To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.

Wouldn't it be possible to use a technique similar to that used to 
install Gentoo? You could enter into a distro already installed on your 
machine, then take the contents of the installation image and put each 
piece of software in its own place. More exactly, if you know a little 
of shell script, you could start reading the installer source code and 
manually reproduce what it does.

Greetings,
Cleverson

Sadly the Dos installation went away somewhere around Slackware 9. You can still get it in early slackware distributions from ftp.slackware.com, but it probably wouldn't work unless you happen to have an old IDE hard disk.

  To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.

What about investigating some accessible SSH client or server for your 
smartphone, then performing the installation from your smartphone onto 
the PC, or maybe the oposite, perform the installation on the PC and try 
to manage the output to be redirected to your smartphone so that the 
screen reader on the smartphone would speak it?

Hi all,

I do not have a hardware synthesizer. Do I have any other options for performing an install of Slackware that do not involve me finding a sighted person to install it for me?

Thanks,
