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.
