There are details on the Grml wiki of how to start it with speech (or braille, but that isn't our topic here). However, changes were made in recent versions to the accessibility support, hence the information on the wiki may not be current. I haven't experimented with a recent GRML release. Grml provides essentially every recovery tool you are likely to need. My own solution is somewhat different: I bind mount my partitions in a directory under /tmp, then use rsync to copy everything over to an external drive. This is slightly easier than excluding /dev, /proc, /sys etc., and still gives you the directories in the underlying file system which serve as the mount points. I have only Linux partitions to back up as I don't run Windows on any of my machines.
