Hello,

I'm using Mandriva Linux, and I'm very happy with it.
The only big drawback is that the official installer doesn't contain brltty,
so one need sighted help to install it. However, the distro is so good that
I wanted it anyway, so I got sighted help when I installed it.

Anyway, it should be possible to install it for people who use braille. I
contacted Mandriva and asked them if they could implement brltty in the
installer (they have it as a package), but I have not got any response so
far. Therefor, I wonder if it's possible to make a braillefied installer
image the same way as it is created for Fedora and RedHat? Since Mandriva
also is RedHat-based, and the installer doesn't differ much from Fedora's,
it shouldn't be very much work to do. I don't have the knowledge to do such
things, so I wonder if someone on this list can take a look at it? For now,
I think the best solution is to modify the small boot.iso-image, and put it
on the download sight for brltty, where the braillefied images for Fedora
etc. already are placed.

Regards, Martin
