> Hello, I'm a newbie installing RedHat for the first time, thanks to Janina, who provided me with the CDs. There is a problem with the installation, it gets to one package (Something about USB, but unfortunately I didn't write that down) and stops. It tells me to hit enter to try again. THe problem is that it never works, and it doesn't give me any other options, like getting this package and installing it later. I have to abort the installation because all it will let me do is try getting this package again. (I suspect there's a problem with the disc, although it also offered the possibility of a bad package.) I don't have a fast connection so Ican't download a whole new disk. What I"m wondering now is, how hard is it really to buy the RedHat CDs, install them, and then install Speakup. The Speakup website says you should have some experience playing with the kernel, which I don't have. I realize I will also have to hijack a pair of eyeballs for a few hours.
