Well if I can work out how to compile the kernel, I'd have a go.  As 
another list member suggested, Slackware isn't seeing my second controller, 
and of course, the additional hard drives either.  So, that seems to rule 
it out - unless I can find a way to shrink my Windows partition on drive 1, 
without destroying the data.

It would be good if you can point me in the direction of some place to 
start looking into kernel compilation.  I have the document I got from the 
Speakup site, but it assumes some kernel building experience, of which I 
have none.




Kind regards, Gordon Smith.
