Bug Description

Case ID: nls-001

   1. Power up your machine insert the install media
   2. Select you language for the install and press Enter
   3. Select Try without any change to your computer and press Enter
   4. Wait for the Live session to start

The boot menu for the netbook ISO (and I'm presuming this also applies to the other ISOs) does not have a boot item that says "Try without any change to your computer"

It simply says "live" and "live install". Both of those options could be confusing/ambiguous to a new or inexperienced user.

This bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. I have classified this bug as a bug in gfxboot.

Kubuntu Netbook live, beta1

The available options are:
live - live install - check - memtest - hd - mainmenu - help

(tried help just to see if it tells something more, it just starts the timer countdown from 30s again...)

Closing this because no one seems to have done anything with it and at this point it's probably pretty moot anyway.
