Hi, see the howto on installing speakup and fc3 it will explain what you need to do before first boot. You can find the howto at the same place you got the images with speakup.

Hey everyone, I am quite sure this question has been answered so forgive me for asking it again. All right, so I have just installed FC3, the most recent ISOS. I did a personal install. Everything goes fine until firstboot. I issue the command, reboot, and speakup stops talking in the middle of the boot process. Is there some known bug that I am unaware of? Thanks in advance!
