Hi Tommy,
If you can get access to a Zoot system with the original 2.2.14-5.0
kernel source installed, copy the BOOT configuration found in the
configs directory in the source tree, patch Speakup into the kernel, do
a make oldconfig, and do: make EXTRAVERSION=-5.0BOOT dep bzImage. When
it's finished cooking., you should have a bzImage file you can copy to
vmlinuz on the bootdisk. I have a version of keymaps.gz that Phil Hall
made for us. I don't know much about it, but it goes in the etc
directory in the initrd.img file. If you can, you should use
redhat-7.0. The images on the Speakup site were made in the way I have
described. Let's talk more about this on the reflector.
HTH and 73.
