+
+<p>
+Welcome to <em>@@@product@@@</em>
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Use this menu to select the desired function. If you have
+problems navigating in this help system, press
+<em>@@@fkey_help@@@</em> to enter the <a href="#help">description</a> of the help
+system. The main functions in this menu are:
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#harddisk">Boot from Hard Disk</a>: This selection will not do
+anything to the system. It only starts a previously installed
+operating system.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#linux">Installation</a>: 
+This installation mode works on most machines. If you experience a
+system freeze during boot or problems with detection of your hardware
+components, such as disk controllers or network cards, try one of the
+following installation options.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#noacpi">Installation -- ACPI Disabled</a>: Many of the
+currently-sold computers have incomplete or faulty ACPI
+implementations. This selection disables ACPI support in the
+kernel, but still enables many performance features, like DMA for IDE
+hard disks.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#nolapic">Installation -- Local APIC Disabled</a>:
+If the normal installation fails, this might be due to the
+system hardware not supporting local APIC.
+If this seems to be the case, use this option to
+install without local APIC support.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#failsafe">Installation -- Safe Settings</a>: If you were not
+successful with <em>Installation</em>, this selection might
+solve the issue.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#rescue">Rescue System</a>: This boot image starts a small
+Linux system in RAM. This is useful if the system does not start properly.
+After booting this system, log in as root.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#firmware">Firmware Test</a>: Runs a BIOS test tool that validates
+ACPI and other parts of your BIOS.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#memtest">Memory Test</a>: Memory testing is useful for more than
+checking installation of new memory modules. It is a stress test
+for a big part of your computer system and may indicate hardware
+problems.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#opt">Boot Options</a>: The boot options may change the
+behavior of your system completely. They are settings for
+the kernel.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#help">@@@fkey_help@@@ Help</a>: This is context sensitive. It will
+show different screens depending on the active element of the
+boot screen. There is also a description of this help system
+available.
+</p>
+

+<a href="#keytable">@@@fkey_lang@@@</a>: Set language and keyboard mapping
+used by the boot loader.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+<a href="#videomode">@@@fkey_video@@@ Video Mode</a>: Here, choose between
+different screen resolutions while installing. If you encounter
+problems with the graphical installation, the <em>text mode</em> may
+be a work-around for you.

+  <li><em>acpi=oldboot</em> -- only the parts of ACPI that are relevant for booting remain activated</li>
