When booting from CD you don't have enough time to read about the
boot options 'install', 'install-safe', 'expert' and 'expert-safe'.

Of course you can press a key to stop booting the default entry, but
maybe this should be printed in the first line.


The daily built cd images have exactly one line of text "Press F1 for
help or ENTER to boot:", and a 5 second timeout.

I think he refers to the boot screen of the powerpc cds (they use yaboot).
