GRML64-bit Accessibility and Cheatcode questions

Hi all, I was curious if GRML64 is accessible to users with blind disabilities by default, as in the 32-bit world of GRML. Secondly, I had a question: While the newer splash menu works niecly for a person with sight, that new menu servs little use for me. How do I go back to the standard boot prompt without the fancey menu before typing "grml swspeak" (without quotes) at the boot of the CD? I am just curious what I can do. If you have suggestions/other considerations, please contact me ASAP. Thanks all for your great work. Please keep up the great work on GRML. Regards, --Keith

It's supposed to be, yes.

IIRC this was solved via IRC already, but just for the archive I'm quoting we've in our FAQ nowadays:
| Starting with release 2009.10 Grml provides a menu based bootsplash. | To adjust boot options just press the TAB-key. To directly switch to | the old-style isolinux cmdline just press the escape key within 30 | seconds. If you still need access to the old bootsplash layout | (including the f2, f3,... pages with further information regarding | available bootoptions) select the entry 'Isolinux prompt' in the | menu based bootsplash (just press 'i' and ENTER for direct access to | it). The timeout until either the selected entry is booted (if | specified) or until the system will restore from the cmdline to the | menu based bootsplash is 30 seconds.
