Some context for debian-accessibility people:
On the blinux list, it was asked:

Man, I was typo king in my last response. Sorry bout that. Ok, how do I get

If you're going to use Orca, I suggest Ubuntu MATE instead. Otherwise, you
really want at least Debian testing. Jessie is very stable, but packages
will be old. I'm running testing here without Orca and I've had no problems.
The live CD runs testing. I suggest upgrading to

It shouldn't write anything to your drives unless you mount a drive or

seemed to work fine. It shouldn't require a hard drive at a

I'm running the met install, hopefully I'm spelling that right, of Jessie. So
far I like it, although I've managed to mess it up on one of my laptops,
so I'll probably spend the morning fixing my screw up. Updated orca and now
it's mad. LOL!
