I think wanting to create this type of CD is admirable, however, the grml rescue disks already have these items as far as I know. They are designed as a rescue system and I have installed the last five or six systems I've set-up with it. I'm not quite sure what you could provide that isn't already part of grml. They have always been accessibility friendly, right from their inception.
I'd suggest at least burning one and learning about them before you redesign a wheel. You could even get involved with helping them if you find them useful.
Once you boot the most recent all you do is modprobe speakup_soft after the beedley-bop sound it makes to let one know it is finished booting and them type espeakup to start the speech output. Very simple. I'm sure it's just as simple to start brltty. Maybe even easier.
