As I recall it, there were a couple of fairly detailed things you had to do without speech on the system you were installing to. You had to bring up the installation as far as the first root prompt of the ramdisk system, then you had to edit the inittab file to change the line that refers to your serial terminal, and then type "init q" to restart inittab, and if you did everything right, you got speech and then used the second computer from then on. I recall getting all the way through a successful installation one time and when it said "You may now reboot by pressing "control, alt, delete" I pressed that key combination on my second machine instead of the Linux box.
