Redhat Boot.img and Speakup

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

 



Hello there:
I am trying to install Redhat on my system.
The following happens:
The disk boots correctly and my dectalk starts speaking.  
The cdrom is accessed and then the message:
a wrong version of the boot disk is being used.  Cancelling setup.  

Now, I have the Valhala Redhat V 7.3 distribution and I made sure of
downloading the boot.img in the 7.3 directory of the FTP site.  
Here is my syslinux.cfg file.  
The only changes I did to this file  is point it directly to the "text"
label and also cut the waiting time to 10 mileseconds.  
I also added my synth command to the append command in the text section.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.  
Regards,
martin
