Maybe this is different than what I'm thinking of, if it is I apologize, but I'm running Debian 9 as we speak, and I burned it to a USB thumb drive, the ISO, I think I used the DD command, or another tool under Linux to do so, but if I plug it in, upon boot up, I get a long beep! At which point I press s, then enter, for speech. If I wait about 20 seconds it instructs me to please type enter to use this soundboard. You have to do it kind of quick, otherwise I think in my case because my system has two sound cards, it switches from one to the other. But if I type in enter, and then actually hit the enter key afterwards, a few minutes later the talking installer will come up which is console-based.

Grab an iso and install it.

Non that are related to accessibility, see below.

In other words, there is no reason why accessibility would be an issue here.
