Re: [orca-list] Help with accessible Fedora installation

Hello,

i have not tried silverblue, but  I have used the workstation addition, and that one is accessible. Once booted, the Orca hotkey should work.

thanks.

Hey, hoping someone can give me pointers on this. I'm trying to
reinstall Fedora on my desktop and am having trouble getting to a place
where I can launch Orca.


I tried using the installation media for Fedora Silverblue, but I don't
think the vanilla Fedora installers are accessible anymore. I think what
I want is the live image, which should have both Orca and the installer.
Am I correct about that?


If so, nothing I've done gets to an X session on the live media. Is
there some sort of manual step I need to carry out to boot the live
media above and beyond what's needed to boot from USB? I.e. do I need to
press Enter, press some key combination to boot to a live vs. rescue
image, etc.?


Assume I've done all the "is it plugged in?" type steps. I've used 2
different USB sticks and several writes of each. The Silverblue
installer booted up fine, but again, I don't think the installer alone
is accessible. So we're down to hardware incompatibilities between the
live CD and needing to perform manual steps. Before I borrow a pair of
eyeballs, I'd like to rule out the manual steps route.


Thanks.
