How about if the user could press <esc> to get a command line where we can
specify what we need. For example, to start a Red Hat installation
(modified) we type something like:
brltty=<braille_device>,<Linux_device>,<braille_table>
This can be used along with other options to the installer such as
mediacheck
or whatever. The brltty command, at least, is pretty much a standard.
Personally, I doubt you'll get much support from us if you expect us to
interact with a menu without being able to read it.
WRT Debian, it can detect only USB braille displays, right? If it's a serial
unit then a command of the type given above would still be needed?
