Bug Description

With Edgy RC Desktop CD, senteces which begin with "Many kernel modules are loaded" appear twice in F5 Help page of boot menu. I'm attaching the screen shot.

This is the screen shot of overlapping sentences.
I added red mark on head of these sentences.

I think the latter sentence is enough for the Desktop CD. This is because the Desktop CD dosen't seem to include expert mode.

hmmm... according to the screenshot, it seems to be repeated once, not twice :)

Mmm, sorry for my poor English ... I should have written "repeat once" for this report, I'm not sure, may be.

Anyway, I think the following paragraph is not suitable for Desktop CD:
Many kernel modules are loaded dynamically by the installer, and parameters
for those modules cannot be given on the command line. To be prompted for
parameters when modules are loaded, boot in expert mode (see <F3>).

Thanks for your report. Though it's phrased quite differently, this is in fact the same as bug 48349, and so is fixed in Ubuntu 7.10.
