[BRLTTY] lfs live disk and braillenote

[cody]

Dave,
  Lfs is something I'm doing on my own time, for installs however I'll be 
doing suse installs which no one has answered my posts on and google has 
failed to give me any useful information. These boot commands are driving me 
insane. The course deals with netowrking and we'll be using suse, xp, 
netware etc. Netware hmmm well forget that one.

If you happen to know the distros with brltty support and the boot commands 
for them please let me know it will cut down on my searching time..
