Hi Janina, First, thanks for the excellent advice to go ahead and download the modified ISO images for RedHat 7.2. I re-made the boot disk, downloaded and burned the modified image files, then installed everything! Worked like a charm; I just wish Speakup could track those menu bars a little better... :-) Thanks also for the warning about the Kernel. I guess when it comes to RedHat, one had better get the kernel from them, just to be sure you don't have trouble... Thanks.
