Bug#630380: debian-installer: Include CD check function in startup menu of CD



Package: debian-installer
Version: 20110106+squeeze1
Severity: minor
Tags: squeeze d-i

There should be an option to test the integrity of the CD in the startup menu
directly, like in Ubuntu:

This is even more important for Debian-Edu, where the only way to find the test
CD function is to go to expert mode and find it in the menu before starting the
installation. See Skolelinux bug:

(System information is from the Ubuntu machine I'm reporting this from...)
