List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi Angus. Do you by any chance have a broadband connection? I'm not criticizing you or anything. It would be far easier to download the speakup iso from the ftp site. Or what you can do is get the binary Speakup kernel and use it as the install kernel not the one that will be stored on the hd. What I did for my Debian install was copy the kernel image and other files such as root.bin and rescue.bin to appropriate directories. Then when prompted, I put in the first in a series of 3 binary Cds of 2.2r5 (the latest release at the time). As a result, my installed system was made up of the speakup 2.2.18pre21-idepci kernel, and the 2.2r5 base system and packages. This is another aproach you can take with the Debian 2.2r6 Cd set which you have bought. Good luck. Explorer has caused a general protection fault in module kernel32.dll. I'm sick of Winblows!
