I can see from several posts that this is a major issue for people. We 
have now worked out how to get the boot menu to play sounds so I hope we 
can have it play a sound when it starts up so you'll know when to press 
F5. The F5 menu itself will also have sounds in it so it will be easier 
to navigate.

The installation program is called 'ubiquity' so you might want to type 
that instead. It is also the first icon on the desktop.

Thanks for sticking with us, we are working to improve the Live CD system :)
