Public bug reported:

Release
ISO Kubuntu Feisty Herd 5 build  3/16/07

Language occurs during Installation Process


The Language on the 'Ready to Install' page will be confusing to
new users (not myself but folks new to Ubunut) 
Please understand I am not picking at things but we want
the widest audience to try [K]Ubuntu.

First area that is confusing

Statement
If you continue, the changes listed below will be written to the disks
Otherwise, you will be able to make further changes manually.

   -disks   should be  disk the partitioner currently only allows selection of 
one disk
   
    -Otherwise, ...
       Otherwise what?  people new to Ubuntu have no idea what the Otherwise is

       Statement should read
       If you don't want the changes listed below to take place on the selected
       Hard Drive, then, go back to Disk Partitioning and Perform Manual 
Partitioning or Select Cancel

Second Area that is confusing

Statement
   The partition tables of the following devices are changed:
    IDE1 master (hda)

     The fs table hasen't been altered yet, it will only be altered if the user
     Selects Install 

There should probably be a statement similar to the following on this
page

Select  Install to continue Installation or Cancel to Exit Installation
or Back to Change any information on this page.


The rest of the 'Ready  to Install' page looks ok
