Hi Nigel!

Seems interesting, but unfortunately that's not what I'm looking for, i.e. I want a clean installation and absolutely no Emacspeak crap... I'm a braille user, you know... :-) No seriously, the main problem is that I want a real installation and not just a bootable CD.

Regards,

Hi David,
You could try oralux, which is based on knoppix which is based on debian.

www.oralux.org

Although at the moment this does not have a gui which if you can make out
the screen is desireble i think.
