As an aside and still about GRUB, I highly recommend blind users to install
grub-emu, which allows to get a an accessible preview of the GRUB menu as it
will be displayed after rebooting.
It is best used in a console but can also be used in a graphical environment.
You can navigate in this (fake) menu with the down and up arrow keys to
highlight (put the focus on) a boot entry of which you can display the details
pressing 'e'. You can go back to the menu pressing Escape.
To exit from grub-emu press c then type exit and press Enter.
Cheers,
Didier
