You are very lucky. I wish I could get sighted help whenever I want. I guess I would rather have the dignity of being able to do the install by myself and knowing that I did it without help. Just because I'm blind doesn't mean that I shouldn't have the right to do my own install. I should be able to install and use any operating system exactly the same as the sighted community. That's why I don't use FreeBSD anymore. It can't be installed without either sighted help or a serial console. Then again, maybe you don't mind having someone do it for you.

You have to use a graphical installer because that's what Ubuntu uses. I think Fedora does as well. The alternative install doesn't seem to be supported anymore and doesn't seem to come with Speakup modules, but I could be wrong on this. Besides, you don't get accessibility settings already configured if you don't do the install with Orca running.

Hi

Is there some special reason you have to use graphical installer?

I have personally found it easier to have a sighted assistant while
installing. He/she does not have to understand much about Linux, only read
the screen and do what i tell to do:-)
