For anyone interested and using a Mac... My temporary solution was to load Ubuntu in VMWare Fusion. I used the ISO and selected the "Quick INstall" option. After about 5 - 10 minutes I heard the login prompt and logged in (no speach) with the credentials I gave VMWare for the Easy Install.
After that it is a simple Options F2 to open the Launch programs dialog. Type Orca and press enter. This will start the Orca setup.
