Re: installing debian with vmware work station speech stops part way threw the installation
Nick,
I have found with other Linux distros, that during the partitioning step,
speech can seem to stop, and if I activate cancel, I don't know what the
hotkey in your installation is for cancel, but you should get a
confirmation, and you can escape from that if the speech starts again.
HTH.
