Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A clear and concise description of what the problem is. Ex. I'm always frustrated when [...]
Please add Fenrir or Speakup to the OMV installer.
Describe the solution you'd like
A clear and concise description of what you want to happen.
I am totally blind and use screen readers such as Orca, Fenrir, and Speakup. Unfortunately, the ISO for OMV doesn't talk at all. Please add speech support to the installer so a totally blind person can independently install the OS. Debian works really well, so if possible, try to make the speech support work the same way. I don't think you need Orca, just a console screen reader like Fenrir or Espeakup to help navigate and read all the installation prompts. My understanding is that the web interface is accessible after installation.
Describe alternatives you've considered
A clear and concise description of any alternative solutions or features you've considered.
I could install Debian Server first, but it's easier to use the provided installer that takes care of everything in a single step.

I am wondering that the OMV ISO does not support that because it is based on Debian-Installer. Any idea how to integrate that missing feature?

I'm not sure. In the Debian ISO, I can get speech by booting it, waiting for the beep, and then pressing s followed by enter. I hear the beep in the 6.5 ISO for OMV, but the same procedure doesn't work. I'm not sure if I can help any further, as I'm not a programmer. If OMV is based off the Debian installer, it should work, unless it's been significantly modified? Perhaps it doesn't include sound support?
