securitybreach Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 This is TalkingArch, a respin of the Arch Linux live CD/USB image modified to include speech and braille output for blind and visually impaired users. Arch Linux is designed to be simple, lightweight and flexible. TalkingArch retains all the features of the Arch Linux live image, but adds speech and braille packages to make it possible for blind and visually impaired users to install Arch Linux eyes-free. Feel free to visit our download page to grab the latest build of the iso image, which will happily run from either a CD or DVD or from a USB stick. Instructions for writing the image can be found at the CD Burning" and USB Installation Media pages at the Arch Wiki. Also, specific instructions for installing Arch Linux using the TalkingArch live media can be found at the TalkingArch wiki page. https://talkingarch.tk/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
