[Bug 1002211] [NEW] [kubuntu] LiveCD uses misleading "installation process" labels on welcome screen

Public bug reported:

The upper part of the welcome screen on the 12.04 Kubuntu LiveCD uses
the title "installation process" and talks about choosing the language
for the installation process. This could be pretty misleading for
novices who want to try the system without installation as this option
has been promised on the website.  Also things like "this will be the
default language on this computer" sound too much like the changes are
going to be persistent.

I suggest changing the title to "choose mode", "try or install" or
something like that and leaving out the "installation process" from the
above labels. "Installation process" is fine after the user has selected
to Install Kubuntu, but not before that decision.
