Hi List I am a visually impaired person currently working on a Windows based PC and have been looking at getting a Linux distro on and working as a dual boot system. So far I have shied away from this as members of the LUG I belong to have had bad experiences using Live CDs when truying to set up a dual boot system - ie the distro attempts to either overwrite or remove Windows which is unacceptable; and they find that the custom install process gets too technical for them to easily deal with. I have thought about using the Ubunto (apologies for spelling) with Gnome accessability on it but this is one of the Live Distros that the LUG have had problems with. Can anyone recommend a suitable distro that comes with all the basic accessability that is not harmfull to existing Windoes installations? I have received good reports about the Ubunto main stream distro on Linux only machines and would like this but am quite wary as mentioned above. I use Windoes XP Home SP 2 and have a 20Gb un-formatted partition available for the distro to load into. Accessability wise I definately need screen enhancements ie colour inversion and full screen magnification, and speech interface but interfaces with braille displays are not needed at the moment. Thanks for your help and advice in advance Ian
