No, debian rescue won't work with speech and here's why.  The s parameter 
you use to start a debian installation disk speaking is mutually exclusive 
to rescue as a parameter.  That means you can enter one or the other but 
not both and have both work.  S and expert are also mutually exclusive.  
It might be possible to start speech once the system had come up in rescue 
mode if you had an audible indication when the system was ready for input 
by perhaps opening up another terminal then starting speakup up as 
soft_synth in that terminal though.On Sat, 26 Jan 2013, Geoff Shang wrote:
