This is regarding the problem loading zipspeak... I did change the line for root to HDA2 from HDB. When speakup reads the bootup screen it initially calls it HDB, but I got further, so that is why I think HDA2 is correct for the zip drive slaved off of HDA1. But now I have a different message, something like: ISOfs_read super bread failed on the line prior to this line, it mentions something about tracks and I think it said something about extending beyond the device. I may not be paraphrasing the last thing well, but the ISOfs line is correct, whatever it means. Thanks for any help. "Live long and prosper", O.
