These were apparently lost in the transition to livemedia-creator.
livecd-creator added them in it's code, and lmc based its live config
files on the the boot.iso configs which do not include it (on purpose).
It never used vesa directly, it passes nomodeset, so make it less
confusing. Also simplify the menu text so that it fits on the screen
for distributions with long names.
