Angus: Not sure how many Linux commands you will need to know so to speak to do a Debian install because I've never done one, I'm running RH 7.2 over here though an upgrade to 7.3 or a format and an installation of 7.3 is imminant in my case. You might also find it beneficial to take a listen to the Debian installation audio tutorial put together by Matt Campbell as a part of his "A Look At Linux" series which he did for ACB Radio's Main Menu. I believe there are a copy of the two files on the speakup ftp tree though you could probably find them in the ACB Radio archives at ACB Radio's web site located at: http://www.acbradio.org Hth.

The HD on the laptop has Corel Linux 1.1 andnow needs a new screen. > > Angus MacKinnon > Adaptive Computer Educator, ACE > Web page: http://members.shaw.ca/dabneyadfm > MAILTO:flodabay at hotmail.com > Choroideremia Research Foundation Inc. > http://www.choroideremia.org > > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup at braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup >
