If you can boot  your laptop from a cd, you can use the redhat rescue 
mode.
If you have a speakup supported hardware synthesizer/braille device, you 
can use the thing with console access.  You'll have smb and nfs and 
networking in the rescue system.

I am wondering if there are any Linux boot disks out there which will have network support enabled and have some kind of Samba built-in so I can use my Windows desktop to access the contents of the drive? So far I've tried a few Windows 98 boot disks, but all I've been able to do was get into DOS, and we all know how shabby that is. Thanks for any help,
