Title:
  Add info on what the "Free Software Only" boot option does

Status in “installation-guide” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Add to page https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/amd64/boot-parms.html#installer-args, under
  Title: Using boot parameters to answer questions
  ....Some specific examples are listed below.
  ....

  Additional example to add:
  apt-setup/restricted=false apt-setup/multiverse=false

  This is equivalent to enabling the "Free Software Only" boot mode.
  This will disable the restricted and multiverse repositories at the
  earliest stages of the debian installer.  This can be helpful if you
  don't need them at all or don't mirror those repositories at your
  local mirror.
