Well, what I'd like to know is if its possible to load a kernel module atthe 
the boot prompt. After boot, I can say, 'modprobe speakup_ltlk' to get 
speech but sometimes it is important to have speech during boot. That way I 
can hear the boot messages.

Actually, if the serial console worked, that would probably be enough for 
me. I can't speak for all blind people but if I really needed to see boot 
messages, I'd probably want to access them through a serial console anyway 
since that way you can cut & paste them into an email or whatever.

I'm going to try that serial console thing again tomorrow. I know you said 
its a bug but I am not sure that the cheat codes were getting through to the 
kernel because I wasn't pressing tab before typing them.
