Hi,
I am a blind user of FreeBSD and here's what I have done to get the system installed on to my machine.
I used a live system called Mfsbsd that I could ssh into and then used bsdinstall from there.
Afterwards I had to upgrade 14.2 to 14.3 with freebsd-update and this worked fine.
Have any more questions I'll help as best as I can.

Tom

hi

I am a completely blind user, is there screen reader support in the 
freebsd installation, and like Debian, I have the impression that 
improvements to accessibility are being made, at what stage they are. I 
don't expect a polished, beautiful user experience, I am a nerd who 
lives on the command line and in vim
