For anyone interested and using a Mac... 

My temporary solution was to load Ubuntu in VMWare Fusion.  I used the ISO
and selected the "Quick INstall" option.  After about 5 - 10 minutes I heard
the login prompt and logged in (no speach) with the credentials I gave
VMWare for the Easy Install.

After that it is a simple Options F2 to open the Launch programs dialog.
Type Orca and press enter.  This will start the Orca setup.

HTH,

Hi,



Curious if there are any plans to make the accessible installation of the
next release of Ubuntu more accessible?



Ubiquity is undergoing a UI redesign, so hopefully things will be better
than in the past. I still need to try and get speech working in ubiquity
mode properly.



My thought is that instead of he rather precise timing required now to
access the accessibility options that a keystroke could be used on the first
page of the installer (once the Live CD loads) to activate the options.
Perhaps there is a technical limitation that would prevent this of which I
am unaware.



There is indeed a technical limitation, and it has to do with the way the
infrastructure is brought up, and the specific order in which this has to be
done. Once the installer is running, you can't bring up the accessibility
infrastructure without completely reloading the installer.
