I have found how they do this. Maybe it can be included in the boot menu 
of Dragora.
I don't know anything about Grub and Isolinux, so I'm not sure how easy 
would be to implement this.
Here are the relevant lines of debian's grub.cfg file. I think they load 
the modules at startup time and check if the modules are loaded to run 
espeakup.

menuentry --hotkey=s 'Install with speech synthesis' {
    set background_color=black
    linux    /install.amd/vmlinuz vga=788 speakup.synth=soft --- quiet
    initrd   /install.amd/gtk/initrd.gz
}

Hope it helps a bit.
