i tested adding "ssh=password" and "swspeak ssh=password" to the boot options. I was able to ssh in both times but swspeak appears to do nothing. Everything else wrt software speech works though. I was able to get software speech on a laptop. I was also able to get speech via a hardware speech synthesizer on a server.

So all the accessibility features of previous releases work fine. I don't know if you intended to get swspeak working again. Maybe next time.

Thanks.

PS: I wish I had taken advantage of grml2usb long ago. Having a thumb drive handy that will allow me to ssh into a down server would have come in handy many times in the past. I have this thing similar to a selfie stick so I can point my phone at a monitor and have it read me the screen. I used that to tell when to press the key to bring up boot device selection. Then I could kind of guess that the USB stick was 3rd on the list. The whole thing took me probably only like a minute or 2. Piece o' cake.
