Actually you don't need speakup to do the install unless you are doing complex raid/lvm at install time. I use www.instalinux.com to make a preceed image, load it onto hard disk 1 and get the image so you can ssh to it then I do the raid/lvm setup from there. that probably won't work for most people. Other alternatives are if you have a null-modem and serial port boot the box, hit enter, escape enter, then key in expert console=ttyS0,9600 If this is virtual hardware you can pull this trick with com0com http://com0com.sourceforge.net/ No speakup at install time although brltty works I hear. check the accessibility wiki for ubuntu.
