That is exactly what I am trying to do. My goal is to build my own CD like GRML that automatically boot with speech using speakup and espeak/espeakup. I am trying to figure out which tools to use to build this CD and how to get it to talk automatically. I will have a look at the debian live build packages and read some documentation. ________________________________________ From: Speakup [speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] on behalf of Tony Baechler [tony at baechler.net] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2013 09:31 To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Subject: Re: Debian Rescue CD -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Why can't you build your own CD? Just install the live-build packages and read the documentation. It built fine for me, but I just used the defaults. That's why I said it would be simple to add speech. Just have it build the rescue CD with the espeak and espeakup packages. There is a package to convert an existing system to a live CD as well. On 5/14/2013 4:00 AM, ?yvind Lode wrote: > I use software speech.
