Kubuntu Live DVD + Install disc issues

[Harry Vorstenbosch]

Dear Daniel,

On the Install CD you can find a directory called Install. Inside this 
directory you can find a README.SBM and a file called sbm.bin. With this 
files you are able to prepare a startup disk to install from CD.

Success, Harry,
