Hi, Jed: No, you do not need sighted assistance in many cases. I would go further and say you almost certainly don't need sighted assistance if you're dedicating a machine entirely to Linux. And, if you backup before you start and are very careful, you can repartition without sighted assistance and get a dual booting system. Read the HOWTO on installation for the Speakup Modified Red Hat Distribution at: http://www.linux-speakup.org/ftp/disks/redhat/HOWTO_INSTALL.html PS: This document will be updated later today, so please refresh your view of it when you see the announcement on this list about the updating.
