This message is often displayed in a rather basic video mode, so I think
it should be kept under 80 characters.  The admonition to close the tray
is at least arguably unnecessary, so I'm going to sacrifice that,
leaving:

  Please remove the installation medium, then press ENTER:

Title:
  Live session Bad Grammar

Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  When finishing a live session, or after having installed Ubuntu (or
  any of its derivatives), a screen appears with:

  "Please remove installation media and close the tray (if any) then
  press ENTER."

  This is wrong. 'Media' is the plural of 'medium', and only one medium
  is used to install Ubuntu (e.g. a DVD or USB drive). Also the sentence
  needs a comma.

  A better sentence would be:

  "Please remove the installation medium and close the tray (if
  present), then press ENTER."
