can't load zipspeak

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I think I know why.  I use XP, and have ntfs for my file system.   How would I go about creating a dos partition if I don't have fdisk?  Is there another program to do so?  
Thanks

  I'm not sure about your problem without more info, but yes, Zipspeak has been updated to Speakup 1.0 and Slackware 8.0.  It's been on the Speakup site for a few months now.

    Hi list.  My  name is Ameer Armaly, and I'm a newbe to linux.  I've never successfully loaded linux before, for reasons forgotten.  Anyway, I tried it again, but now I have windows xp which doesn't support real mode dos, so  a boot floppy was needed.  I wrote a bood disk wit windows rawwrite.  It booted with "boot:", after which I hit enter without typing anything.  It sat for about five minutes, saying "mounting root...".  Does anybody know a way to help?  Also, is zipspeak updated to the latest speakup and slackware?
