kubuntu live usb boots up to ubuntu text installer (no kde desktop)


hi, i am using unetbootin to create a live-usb of this iso: freemed-live-0.1-i386.iso (i think it is based on kubuntu). when i turn on my netbook with the usb plugged in i get about 6 menu items (default, live, live expert, linux, ...) but no matter which i select it takes me to some ubuntu text install where it is asking me to select language and keyboard layout.

is there a way make it boot to the live desktop ?

thanks,

hi, i was able to boot this using qemu on my fedora netbook with 1 gb of ram so it took about 25 minutes to load:
Code:
qemu -boot d -cdrom freemed-live-0.1-i386.iso
for some reason when i boot up the usb it fails at some point related to not finding the cdrom.

is there a way to fix this in unetbootin ?
