People usually modify the installation floppies or CD images so as
to launch a statically-linked brltty before the installation program
itself, see documentation of BRLTTY. Some distributions (like debian)
are moving towards integrating brltty more closely: with debian, you
should some day be able to use the usual installation CD and use a USB
stick to give the brltty configuration.
