Sighted assistance. It simply means that I am blind (as in I wear prosthetic eyes and can't see a thing). I can use most of my equipment here with either some screen reader access or braille. Unfortunately, that can't be said for installation and first time configuration of OpenBSD (the man AfterBoot process). Only after SSH is enabled can I do anything with the machine. It certainly would be a lot better if OpenBSD supported a general CLI screen reader right from boot up. I do know that enough of the hardware gets detected to at least support this. Unfortunately, I am not a coder, so I can't really try this without some help. Running a compiler script (configure, make and make install) are easy enough from a CLI SSH session, but unless I can run a package immediately after the OS has completely booted and given me a login prompt, I am literally operating in the blind zone.
This is what I mean by sighted assistance. So right now, if I can't do it myself, whats the point? -eric On Jul 4, 2013, at 10:09 PM, openda...@hushmail.com wrote: > On 5. juli 2013 at 4:59 AM, "eric oyen" <eric.o...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> My only problem (and it seems none of the devs really understand this) >> is that I must have sighted assistance to install and initially configure >> the OS. > > What do you mean sighted assistance? > > O.D.
