Unfortunately, you can't. As soon as the Linux kernel has booted, DOS
is gone.

Wrong idea. I don't think this is possible.

Aaah, you are an emacs user. There is something called emacspeak:
"Description: speech output interface to Emacs
 Emacspeak is a speech output system that will allow someone who
 cannot see to work directly on a UNIX system.  (Until now, the only
 option available to visually impaired users has been to use a talking
 PC as a terminal.)  Emacspeak is built on top of Emacs.  Once you
 start emacs with emacspeak loaded, you get spoken feedback for
 everything you do.  Your mileage will vary depending on how well you
 can use Emacs.  There is nothing that you cannot do inside Emacs :-).
 This package includes speech servers written in tcl to support the
 DECtalk Express and DECtalk MultiVoice speech synthesizers.  For
 other synthesizers, look for separate speech server packages."

So if you somehow manage to install Linux and then this emacspeak
thing, you should be able to use Linux.

: Third question:
: How I can execute linux binaries files as speech sinthetizers
: without recompiling?

If you have a Linux system running, you (probably) don't need to
recompile.

Nobody (to my knowledge) has yet written a Linux emulator for DJGPP,
so running Linux programs in DJGPP environment is not possible.
