Hello: If anyone wants to know how to change the "scary" text on the Live CD's [that they burn themselfs] here is something that I posted on my unbuntu wiki page (below):
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MikeFeravolo?highlight=%28Mike%29%7C%28Feravolo% 29 A Quick Fix for the Scary Live CD In a post to the marketing group I noted that people that I have given the Live CD's to were scared off by the term "Start or Install Ubuntu" on the splash screen. Here is know you can change that "scary text" before you burn your own Live CD's. You will need the following software tools: An ISO Editor (isomaster), a text editor (gedit) and a iso image of a unbuntu distribution. 1) Download your Favorite Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu or Edubuntu Distribution 2) Open the ISO image file with the ISO editor 3) Extract the File /isolinux/isolinux.cfg to your desktop 4) Make sure you have read and write permission to isolinux.cfg 5) Edit isolinux.cfg and remove the word install, and/or replace it with something like "Test Drive" to make it less scary. 6) Save isolinux.cfg and quit the text editor 7) using the ISO Editor replace the file /isolinux/isolinux.cfg with the one that you edited 8) Save the Modified ISO Image for your favorite flavor of *-buntu 9) Burn it to a CD 10) Restart Your System and Enjoy It's kind of rough but it add a few screen snaps and rewrite the dialog to make it a little less technical, add a little bit of the case history info (to make it more "newsy") and it might just make a half-way decent full circle feature article.
