Re: maybe off topic but how do I setup orca on a flash drive
Hi, After dowloading the .iso file and checking the md5sum I simply do the following: 1. insert the memory stick. 2. in a terminal type: usb-creator-gtk Note: you can press Tab after typing 'usb-c' 3. press Enter. 4. follow the steps on the screen. Success.\Milton Op 07-05-2020 om 22:23 schreef Don Raikes: Hello, It has been a number of years since I have used Ubuntu and then it was always on an installed version.

Re: maybe off topic but how do I setup orca on a flash drive
Hi Don, I use Universal USB Installer. It offers to make a persistence file. I have read that one should always make a persistence file within 512 MB ranges, like 512, 1024, 2048, etc. Here's a link: https://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/ Glenn - Original Message - From: Don Raikes To: ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com Sent: Thursday, May 07, 2020 3:23 PM Subject: maybe off topic but how do I setup orca on a flash drive Hello, It has been a number of years since I have used Ubuntu and then it was always on an installed version.

Off topic, Linux shop
Hello, is some linux shop when I can buy flash disks with OS, coffee cubs with linux signs, etc? We had in the Czech Republic linux market, but it will be cancelled. They will sell last things and close their shop. Is it in other countries? I would like to buy linux things such as cubs, clothes, etc. Best regards Vojta. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
Re: Ubuntu 20.04
Hi,\I did lots of fresh installs of Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 for sighted users with the great help of Orca. After pressing F12 for the boot menu I always need sighted assistance to tell me where my install pendrive is. The difference with 18.04 is that the disk is checked and this will take few minutes. After this process is ready and no errors found I then hear the welcome sound. So then I start Orca. Milton Op 05-05-2020 om 14:56 schreef Daniel Crone: Hello everyone. I am using Ubuntu 2020 with a Dell. When installing Ubuntu mate 2020.04 yesterday, I pressed f 12 to get to the boot menu. Then went to what I thought was the dvd choice. Since I could not bring up Orca for several attempts, I used Be My Eyes. The volunteer said that after I pressed f 12, a language choice prompt appeared. Then the choice whether to use Ubuntu before installing, or to install appeared. After entering on use before installing I then brought up Orca with super alt s. Should I have been able to bring up Orca before those other choices? Is this installer markedly different than with Ubuntu 2018.04? Had I not had Be My Eyes, how would I have known what to do in this situation? -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
Re: starting to learn Ubuntu as a second os. have some accessibility questions.
Hi, I have no problems installing Ubuntu 20.04 with the great help of Orca but I have no experience installing from a dvd or in a virtual machine.
