>  Hey Luke, I was wondering how the idea you mentioned a few days ago will work. I'm referring to what you said about having ubuntu boot into the installer. How is this going to work. Will there be a beep at the point you have to make a choice, or will it be a matter of pressing a key like f 5 to choose the accessible install menu. I assume ubuntu will come up with orca talking the content of the installer right?

Ok, what I meant was the following.
1. You boot the live CD, and press enter to skip over the language selection, or if you have help, select the language you want.
2. Press the down arrow key once. This will place you on the option to run the instalerdirectly, and not load the desktop.
3. Pressing F5 and choosing the profile for accessibility at this point, and then pressing enter, will load the installer with the appropriate accessibility enabled.

Please note that this is not yet tested to the point where its considered ready for more testing. I have not yet managed to test it properly, due to other live CD issues, but once I've managed to get it working in a basic form, I will ask for wider testing.

Thanks for your interest.

Luke
