help with install of debian and speakup!?

The linux gui still isn't available yet.
The way I installed Debian, i burned  a debian cd and i had to use the
smartbootmgr.dsk file found on the slackware ftp site. I used the gui
version of rorite to write this file to a floppy. This writing to a
floppy was done on a windows xp computer, the computer i wanted to
install Debian on was a pentium 1 old crap machine i had here. The
issue i was having with my bios is any cd's wouldn't boot but floppies
would, if you figure out what i'm talking about, maybe this might work
for you, it worked for me, when you get the disk written you go down
five times with your cursor down key and you should land on the boot
from cd option. after booting the floppy

on1/14/2006BlindTech of BlindTechs.Net said  
for one its twelve years in computer technology in general. not  
linux. because the linux (and/or gnu) was not avalable to the blind  
just yet as we know it. so stop misspeaking something you  
miscommunicate.
