I tried it on my mac mini and the same thing happens, attempting to access the list of drives in disk utility will cause voiceover to totally crash. I realize that a new release of an operating system may have some bugs but I would consider this a major bug, at this point, doing a clean install of Big Sur is not possible. I'm not sure if anyone from the applevis site is on this list but if so, you may want to add this to the Big Sur blog article.
