All right. I have got Slackware with Speakup installed on my PC. By some miracle, though I ended up having to delete my DOS/Win98 partition, since my second hard drive was not recognized by setup, Windows seems not to have been destroyed, but exists on the new Fat32 partition I created as /dev/hda1. Now, How do I get Linux to dial in to the internet, so that I can start having the old semblance of a shell account. At this point, RTFM will not serve, because I can't find any man pages or help entries on how to do it. Speedy response is appreciated. Rgds. Moshe
