Hi speakup,
My name is Krister Ekstrom and i live in Sweden. For a long time now
i've been a windows user but have also from time to time taken an
interest in Linux. Now, as Gnome- and eventually Kde accessibility
is coming i begin to feel it's time to make the switch, take the
plunge and start experimenting with Linux. Here comes my newbiesh
questions:
So, i was thinking i would use Knoppix as my distro. I found a
Speakup enabled Knoppix cd and downloaded it. I tried running it,
and no speach at all. This leads me to believe there may be
something wrong with that distro and so i thought i might as well
try downloading and installing something else. I checked the Red hat
distro, and discovered that it required more disk space than i have.
I have a big hard disk with 20 gigg of disk space containing Win XP
and another disk with 3 giggs of disk space which i want to install
Linux on, however this one's too small for the RH distribution which
seems to require 5 gigabyte in order to be happy.
I also looked at Debian, but it seemed much harder to install. What
i wonder now is can i partition my C drive, (the big one containing
WinXP) so that i could install Linux on that one and still make
Linux and XP live happily with eachother, or what should i else do?
TIA for any answers.
