When you flat-review that screen, you will see two unlabeled push
buttons in a row; use use orca+7 (laptop mode) to click on the
right-most of the buttons. Many of these installer screens have
an arrangement like this; the buttons are labeled, perhaps with
icons, 'back' and 'next' or 'continue'. For the language and
keyboard layout selectors, you have to use 'ctrl+tab' to move to
the buttons, or do the flat-review thing. When you get to the
software selection screen, be sure that the 'accessibility
packages' group is selected, else, you won't have orca,
speech-dispatcher, or espeak. The installed system will an
inaccessible version of the display manager, lightdm. Just punch
in your password. When I recently did this installation, I went
in and added gdm, then disabled lightdm and enabled gdm. On
reboot, I started orca, in the usual way, and, now, I have a
talking login screen, which is important, since the machine in
question has a solid-state drive.
