What you should do instead is to create a dos bootdisk by doing a sys transfer, and then run the install.bat script to load the Debian installer into /dev/ram using loadlin. You have to get the dosutils and edit the install.bat though. Explorer has caused a general protection fault in module kernel32.dll. I'm sickf Winblows!

I downloaded "debian-2.2r2-speakup.iso" and was wondering if I should use Nero 5.50.82 to burn the file to disk? I have Windows 98SE on my 14.2GB C:. And wish to install Linux on my 14.2 GB D:. If I burn "debian-2.2r2-speakup.iso" to a CD RW; can I put the CD into the CD ROM drive shutdown to power off and then turn the power on and have the CD boot to a talking install? > > Angus MacKinnon > Adaptive Computer Educator, ACE > Web page: http://members.shaw.ca/dabneyadfm > NAILTO:flodabay@hotmail.com > Choroideremia Research Foundation Inc. > http://www.choroideremia.org > > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup@braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup >
