Hello, john doe, le ven. 13 nov. 2020 09:03:41 +0100, a ecrit:On the wiki, I see that I should be able to use 'speakup.synth=soft' as kernel boot parameter. I'm not able to get it working, am I missing something?That should be enough, yes, it's the only difference between the graphical installer and the speech-enabled installer. How do you pass it as kernel boot parameter exactly? Which image do you use exactly?
Here's my setup:
Command line to start Qemu:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -soundhw all -drive
file=debian.img,index=0,media=disk,format=raw -m 1024 -boot
order=n,menu=on -accel kvm -machine q35 -nic
user,tftp=text,bootfile=pxelinux.0
The tftp root directory ('text') is taken from the pkg
'debian-installer-10-netboot-amd64'.
First, you need to add vm.cfg in
'debian-installer/amd64/boot-screens/menu.cfg'
$cat debian-installer/amd64/boot-screens/menu.cfg
[snip]
menu title Debian GNU/Linux installer menu (BIOS mode)
include debian-installer/amd64/boot-screens/stdmenu.cfg
include debian-installer/amd64/boot-screens/gtk.cfg
include debian-installer/amd64/boot-screens/vm.cfg
include debian-installer/amd64/boot-screens/txt.cfg
menu begin advanced
[snip]
vm.cfg is:
$ cat debian-installer/amd64/boot-screens/vm.cfg
label vm
menu label ^Auto install VM
kernel debian-installer/amd64/linux
append auto=true priority=critical DEBIAN_FRONTEND=text
initrd=debian-installer/amd64/initrd.gz url=tftp://10.0.2.2
speakup.synth=soft --- quiet
