Fedora and virtual machines not starting

[Linux for blind general discussion]

I had very bad experience with Fedora 35 mate a couple of days ago too. 
I installed it on an external media, SD disk and had serious 
accessibility problems. I lost speech during installation. I also lost 
speech during update. I could not get braille to work with it at all, 
and It also screwed up my laptop bios start up options.

I do not know if earlier versions of Fedora are any better in terms of 
accessibility. I would not recommend it for beginners like myself.

Cheers,

Ibrahim
