Glenn,
You are posting on a Debian mailing list: the mailing list code of conduct
and the Debian Code of Conduct apply here. Please treat others with respect.
The last Debian that could routinely boot from a floppy was probably
round about Debian 2.x - so more than 20 years ago. There may be other
Linux derived things that can still boot from a floppy but I doubt it.
tomsrtbt was 2002, for example.
Some of your questions *are* debian-user material and only related to
accessibility by talking about speech synthesisers. This list has
historically overlapped with debian-user, especially for blind and
visually impaired users but it is distinct.
I can understand frustration and annoyance, especially when things
don't work and you might be relying on others to help you fix them
but please - show a bit more calm?
As I'd write on debian-user - please try and explain *exactly* what
you want to do, what you've tried and how it went. The community
can't always help with problem solving if the situation is unclear
to begin with.
All the very best, as ever,
Andy Cater
