at a loss

Let's review a bit, if you don't mind. Pardon if you've mentioned this
already:

1.)	Where did you get FC3?

2.)	Do the best of your ability, you have verified you have good
installation media? Date/time stamps all match, byte size, etc. I
understand you can't run rsync.

3.)	Have you tried booting without the speakup_ser part of the
command?

4.)	Do you know for a fact your bios allows booting from cd rom?
That this feature is, in fact, enabled?

I have copied the installation howto into braille to the letter as ready reference, done all that is required of me at the preparation stage, even did almost nothing else but tried to get FC3 installed for the past 2 days, but nothing seems to work.  I can't even get past the first stage of text installation simply because speakup refuses to talk to my Dectalk express.  I cannot say if my dectalk express is the source of the problem because it works very well with Wineyes and jaws even.  I am totally stuck now and don't know what else I can do.  Unless someone who has installed linux with the dectalk express synth is willing to help me, i'll have to shelf the idea of installing linux, at least for the foreseeable future.  Cheers!

If Linux can't solve your computing problem, you need a different problem.
