Do you want a special speech software? If not, since gnome-orca is available for all versions of Debian, the speech-dispatcher will provide at least festival. Or should the installer already use a speech synth?

If you would be from Germany, I could sent you a CD. I suspect somebody from your country is willing to sent you the CD too. > Agreed, had I not been told that Debian would not care which method I > used, it might have been smarter to ignore having speech for the install, > but I have what I have.

You only should install what you need at the moment. It's possible to install additional packages from DVD later. This is independent from upgrades. > As expressed, the situation is not something I can shift without a grand > loss of time, I am serious about how long it took me to find a person able > to burn what I have. FWIW, avoid using install medias from Linux magazines. You can buy regular Debian install medias, take a look at http://www.debian.org/CD/vendors/ OTOH it might be less expensive to visit an internet café to download and burn the media ... if nobody is willing to sent you a CD for free ;).
