Yes, this is the image to download for now. current-iso is actually a |
| 2 |
symbolic link that points to a directory where the most current |
| 3 |
successful cd build is. |

The system will beep when you get to a boot prompt. From there, type a |
| 6 |
command like, |
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
gentoo speakup.synth=soft |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
to bring up software speech. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
or, |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
gentoo speakup.synth=ltlk speakup_ltlk.ser=2 |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
for an ltlk on serial port 2. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
or, |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
gentoo brltty=something |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
to bring up brltty. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
There is more info in the readme on the isoabout the command line |
| 25 |
parameters and kernels. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Once we get the dvd set up, we will be working on getting more |
| 28 |
documentation together; I will open a bug for that soon. |

The other points to remember would be that, when you are doing an |
| 31 |
install, you will need to configure the chroot to support speech if you |
| 32 |
want it after you reboot. So, that would mean emerging either espeakup |
| 33 |
or speakup depending on which type of speech you want as well as |
| 34 |
configuring alsa if you are going to use it on the installed system for |
| 35 |
speech or sounds, all before you do the final reboot. |
