Re: New Install Fails at Step 14
That's quite all right, it's not something that's really important
unless the non-full installs don't include screenreader support
durinig the actual install, which they probably don't. You don't even
have to ask your friend. If you happen to have a copy of the distro
handy, boot it, and tell me if there's an option to start the
installation with a screenreader, which is documented in the full
install as the "S" option on the install menu.
