Okay,
So if I want to try and improve this procedure for future versions of
Ubuntu, how might I best go about it?
Thanks.

Hi,
Sorry but I still haven't got an adequate answer to this.
According to Charlie's answer, to my question about what happens when
you boot the live CD, the first screen that comes up gives you the
choice of language + buttons for choosing either an install or a live
session.
So how do you s

For anyone interested and using a Mac...
My temporary solution was to load Ubuntu in VMWare Fusion. I used the ISO and
selected the "Quick INstall" option. After about 5 - 10 minutes I heard the
login prompt and logged in (no speach) with the credentials I gave VMWare for
the Easy Install.

This is incorrect. Whenever your system boots, if a sound card is found, and
the kernel has the driver for it, sound will be available.

do nothing, it triggers voiceover to start up. first it plays some audio files

Hi Tara,
Yes I know about how Macs automatically start speech if you don't
interact with the system. Basically they assume you can't see the
screen if you don't do anything after a set period.
It would be great if Ubuntu could be like this or we could at least have
a system where speech cou

Hi list,
Could someone sighted please explain exactly what happens when you boot

In the previous couple of versions of Ubuntu, the following used to happen;
1. You boot the CD.
2. Almost immediately the CD stops spinning and you are on a language

The installer would not have any sound drivers loaded so speech output
wouldn't be possible.
However I believe you can run a live desktop from the CD without
installing, so you might be able to launch Orca and run the graphical
installer that way.
