Re: [orca-list] A quick Debian question

[Tim <isfeldt gmail com>]

That won't work, I think that's only if you're actually booted to the  desktop environment, but I'm talking about booting directly from a USB image, if it's plugged in, at least on my Dell machine, it beeps, you then have to press s for speech, at which point it says type enter to use this soundboard. At which point then the command lines installer starts

 But you can try this:
 Download Slint-14.2.1.1:
 wget https://sourceforge.net/projects/slint/files/14.2.1/slint64-14.2.1.1.iso
 Check its md5sum:
 md5sum slint64-14.2.1.1.iso
 This should give you this output
 d3a41c3c0768a757a47e678a1fc94906  slint64-14.2.1.1.iso
 Put it on an USB stick (the ISO is hybrid, so you can just use the dd command)
 Boot it on the machine where your system is installed.
 It will start speaking. When asked, press S so that it continue speaking.
 Follow instructions but do not go beyond logging in as root when requested.
 Then ype:
 lsblk -l -o vendor,model,name,size,fstype
 This should allow you to identify your root / partition.

 Assuming its name be sda2 (adapt accordingly), type:
 mount /dev/sda2 /mnt
 mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc
 mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
 mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
 chroot /mnt
 You are now in your installed system, in console mode.
 Just type the commands you need to remove the nasty package.

 When you are done, type exit to go back to the installer, remove the installer's USB stick and reboot.

 Caveat: this will work only if you have a single sound card.

 Else (e.g. you have also an HDMI sound card) I can provide another ISO.

 Hope this helps,

 Didier

 Unfortunately, It's not possible. You need to use Ubuntu for a live CD/DVD/USB accessible with Orca.

 Just a quick question, anybody know if there is an acceptable method of booting into alive Debian 9 image, with orca? I know by default when you boot a Debian ISO / USB image, you have to press s to get speech but that then brings you to the talking command line installer. I'm wanting to boot into a graphical live image, with orca, so that I can chroot into my installed system, because I inadvertently installed a package, and now it won't boot, so I just need to go in and remove said package but I'm not sure if this is possible, I know with Ubuntu for example, or other distributions, you can boot into the desktop environment, like mate or gnome, and orca would come up speaking by default. I could always find something like an older sonar gnu image, and boot that if I need to, but because you have to tell Debian which desktop environment do you want to install, I wasn't sure if there was a I guess you could call it plug-and-play method, to boot from USB, and be presented
 with Orca and a graphical desktop. Thanks a bunch!
