Bug Description

Currently, regardless of whether or not you select "Try Lubuntu before installing" or "Install Lubuntu," the standard live session is loaded. One has to navigate through the menu to launch Calamares (which, of course, if you don't know what it is, you don't know it's the installer).

We need two things here:

 1. Fix debian-cd (?) such that "Install Lubuntu" launches the minimal X environment and the installer, as it normally does with Ubiquity.
 2. Put a shortcut named "Install Lubuntu" on the Desktop that launches Calamares for the people that try first.

Same problem with image from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/20180526/cosmic-desktop-i386.iso

First boot screen is nothing like description at iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/390/builds/173396/testcases/1300/results

In the live session, can use the launcher to select System Tools, then Install System, and the installer runs OK.
