Hi,

some parts in the d-i manual for the graphical installer were written in 
times, were we had only *one* entry "Graphical install" in the initial 
boot menu, but we had no submenu "Alternative desktop environments" existing.

Now we have *several* "Graphical install" entries all over the bootmenu,
not only one (under "Alternative desktop environments" submenu).

This should probably result in some small changes for the manual.

Patch attached.


Holger

This bug can be closed.
The "Alternative desktop environments" submenu does not exist anymore in
Jessie installer, since the desktop selection is now done in tasksel.
