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.
