Installing Arch Linux For Blind Users With Text to Speech Using Espeak

In this video I will be performing an install of Linux using the Blind Arch distribution.
This is a scripted install comprised of a series of bash scripts based on the eznix installer.Show more

This installer is built to create a minimal install with the most basic functions to get a system up and running with text to speech services. The idea is to have an installer for Arch Linux that can walk a blind user through setting up their PC without any outside assistance.

NOTE: The partition manager does wipe whichever drive is chosen. If partitions are prebuilt, the scripted install parts can be done individually, but I would recommend reading the code to understand this process.
