…reactos#138) ReactOS commit reactos/reactos@b2e33f2 removed the separate livecd artifact, merging it with the bootcd. Rename also "bootcd" to "Boot Media", since it's more generic (e.g. the ISO can be flashed onto an USB thumb drive). The text of the download.html is reworded to explain what the "Boot Media" does.

| <h2>How to choose?</h2> | ||
| <p>If you wish to install ReactOS on your machine, then Boot CD is the right option for you. Boot CD will direct you to a setup environment, please follow the instructions given on the screen. Live CD is useful if you don't plan to keep ReactOS on your computer for a longer period of time. It allows you to explore ReactOS in a temporary environment that will be reset in a restart. <span class="text-danger font-weight-bold">Please note, that ReactOS is still in alpha and gives no guarantee of stability, safety of your files or working at all.</span></p> | ||
| <h2>What does the Boot Media offer?</h2> | ||
| <p>The ReactOS Boot Media offers you the possibility of either installing ReactOS on your machine, or alternatively, trying ReactOS without the need for installation. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Yes, and the singular is "medium". However I remember way back when we modified the 5-second prompt that shows when you boot the ReactOS ISO ("Press a key to boot the ReactOS...."), that when we replaced "CD-ROM" by medium/media, I've been argued that "medium" sounded a bit less "usual" than "media".
