Hi!
Actually someone mentioned that on the orca mailing list and that made me brave enough to try it.
I use braille and the display popped up like a charm and i have to say that til the step install failed i had a very very smooth experience with it.
I know there is an accessible debian list somewhere and maybe i will dig it up if i need to.

But I think all you have to do is keep pressing the s key as it boots. When I was using debian, I did several installs a week and I learned that the timing isn't critical.  You can just keep pressing the s  key until it starts talking. Of course, you have to have a working sound card and speakers for it to work.
