Hello,

I have been a unix/linux user for roughly 15 years, but have just recently learned about the concepts and power behind grml (yesterday).

I am blind, and an very pleased with the integration of speakup and brltty into the grml live cd.

My first "job" with grml is to try to diagnose/recover a windows laptop. It had problems right from the beginning when we opened the box from the manufacturer, but my daughter was able to keep it going for 2.5 yerars. This spring it simply stopped booting even after a full re-install of windows.

Any tips on system diagnostics that I could run would be appreciated.
