Linux without sighted help

[Jude DaShiell]

http://www.grml.org/ has an iso file for download.  It's a livecd that can 
also be used to install linux if you like it. Try booting and when the 
disk stops for a few seconds type grml swspeak then hit return.  If you 
have a sound card with active speakers you'll hear a message saying grml 
finished booting and telling you to type swspeak again.  This is only 
necessary if linux isn't installed on the hard drive.  Type swspeak again 
and you'll have speech.
