Try again. Many of the broken links are now fixed. While the floppy links are fixed, a new problem has cropped up regarding the floppy images themselves. So, wait a bit on those. They will get fixed. I guess I want you to consider that Red Hat don't ask us if everything is OK before we release the Speakup Modified Red Hat Distribution. We do our best, but it's a process of discovery and remedy. A number of changes in Red Hat 7.3 have challeneged prevailing wisdom. This means rewrites to the HOWTO documents, as well as new links and directories. It will all get fixed--but we're still in the first week of the new Red Hat release, so please recognize that there are issues that require resolution. On Mon, 13 May 2002, Kenny Hitt wrote: > Hi.
