The following instructions are valid using the speakup-enabled boot floppy for Debian Woody. Boot up the floppy and get Speakup going. Insert the root disk when it tells you to, and let it load. Hit Enter at the first screen. You'll get the standard installation menu. Activate your swap partition, then mount your root partition. You don't want to make these again, as remaking the root partition would destroy everything you've done so far. When root is mounted, go way down in the menu and there should be an option to edit boot parameters. Do that, and follow instructions. At this point I think you have to tell it again to make system bootable, as Lilo's information needs to be updated. Then, reboot and that should do it. There is probably a similar way to get things done using the CD, but I have no idea.
