text during OEM install: "For business only"

Asked by Iztok Jeras

During the OEM installation there is a message in the left top corner saying:
"For business only" or maybe "For manufacturers only"
I do not think this is compatible with the Ubuntu philosophy.

Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and helping to make Ubuntu better. Examining the information you have given us, this does not appear to be a bug report so we are closing it and converting it to a question in the support tracker. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but it would make more sense to raise problems you are having in the support tracker at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu if you are uncertain if they are bugs. For help on reporting bugs, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs .

Is absolutely correct.

The image you are using, you sadly didn't explain from which vendor, is trimmed for their (your) use. Maybe the wording is not so nice... but really not wrong at all.

And if you talk about philosophy... you have to see the (by Ubuntu mostly) used licenses:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.txt
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.txt

Much fun while reading. ;-)

Can you help with this problem?
