I am considering buying the following from Cheap Bytes.
http://cart.cheapbytes.com/cgi-bin/cart/0070010802
This is not a talking CD set, however, this is the only Debian set That is sold. If I bought the disks, how would I make them speak? My DECTalk Express is on COM1.

Why don't you just burn the speakup ISOs from the ftp site?

Angus:
I don't use Debian so sorry ther my friend but I can't answer your
questions specific to speech-enabling the geniric cds you are
contemplating buying from Cheap Bytes, however; if you are looking for a
set of non-speakup modified Debian disks and you are on cable as I seem
to remember you being you might like to know that I got pretty decent
download speeds downloading Debian R 6 from: ftp.rutgers.edu.
So, of course this would nullify the need to buy the cds if you wish to
save a dollar or two.
Hth.

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!
