There is modified net-install CD image available that uses
speakup-modified kernels, allowing independent installation of sarge
with speech or braille. You may then choose to have one of those kernels
installed in the running system. You can choose 2.4.27 or 2.6.8. It is
otherwise a standard sarge net-install disk. You can find it at:
http://people.debian.org/~shane/netinst-speakup/
The iso image is 150 MB and has good documentation.
