Sorry, forgot to atach the file! ----- Original Message ----- From: Alex Snow To: speakup at braille.uwo.ca Sent: Friday, May 10, 2002 4:00 PM Subject: Re: Debian installation problems Please Help! Hi Igor, I have atached my modified install.bat. I mirrored the speakup ftp server's directory structure. I use a dos boot disk to start my machine, and the install files are on the primary ide master. I will be installing to primary slave because it's bigger. When I type c:\bin\compact\install, Loadlin starts and I get that insert disk into ramdrive message, press enter, and the bns clicks like it's going to talk, but doesn't.

Hi Alex. Did you edit the install.bat. You have to be in realmode dos for this to work. In my case, I used a bootdisk. Back to install.bat. You have to take the . out in front of the c:\, and also the one in front of the ./images-1.44. Also make sure you have mirrored the directories correctly. Once you run install.bat in realmode dos, you press enter because it asks you for a root floppy for some reason. I still haven't figured out why it does this. Once you press enter after you think the root floppy message has come up, then it should start talking. Oh and also add speakup_synth=bns before root=/dev/ram. I'm not sure if you already knew this, but its always good to have a reference. ----- Original Message ----- From: Alex Snow To: speakup at braille.uwo.ca Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2002 7:15 PM Subject: Debian installation problems Please Help! Hi All, I just coppied all the needed files to the hard drive of the machine I want to install debian on, and ran install.bat. It loads, but I don't here anything. I am using a BNS as the synth, and It just clicks on like it's going to talk, but nothing happens. Can anyone help?
