A Better Way to Accessible Live Cd?

Hi List!

I am trying to install Lucid, and cannot get an accessible install, that
is, assuming the usb key boots, in the first place.

The "magic key sequence" hitting 'space' every 4 seconds for the 1st 30,
then 'f5 3 enter enter', does not work.  When the live cd session boots,
and I manually start orca from the run dialogue, I go through the setup
and try logging back in; it never happens right.  Also, while in the
setup, another orca tries to start preferences, then both end up locked.
Option of powering down is only one left to me.  I've tried starting
another x session, thinking I might be able to come up talking.

Why must such a "magic sequence" be necessary?  Is it too much to ask
that a working orca be available, just by starting it from the menus or
the run dialogue in the live session?  


Thanks,


Dave
