You'll see a line that starts title, then possibly root then one starting with kernel. Something like this: kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.26-fc9-i386-spk root=LABEL=/ Put a space after that line then add any kernel parameters such as speakup's. Check the documentation that you have the correct arguement. I know that there's been some changes but I thought that the software synth was: speakup.synth=sftsyn Gena
