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. |
