  Live image boot menu entries of Kubuntu are mistranslated

Bug description:
  Hello,

  while testing the current daily live image of Kubuntu Focal, I
  discovered that the menu entries of the boot menu got wrong
  translations.

  Steps to reproduce:

  - Boot from USB stick with live image (System without UEFI)
  - After BIOS setup finished, press F2 to open the "Select language" menu
  - Select "Deutsch"

  Now the boot menu entries are translated, but with wrong translations
  (see also attached screenshots):

  English                      | German (wrong)
  --------------------------------------
  "Start Kubuntu"             --->  "Nur freie Programme" (Only free software) right translation: "Kubuntu starten")

  "Start Kubuntu (safe graphics)" (this one is not translated)

  "Check disc for defects"    ---> "Edubuntu installieren" (Install
  Edubuntu) right translation: "Datenträger auf Fehler überprüfen")

  "Test memory"               ---> "Kubuntu starten" (Start Kubuntu)
  right translation: "Arbeitsspeicher prüfen")

  "Boot from first hard disk" ---> "Edubuntu im Textmodus installieren"
  (Install Edubuntu in text mode) right translation: "Von der ersten
  Festplatte starten")

  The line at the screen bottom which lists the action of the function
  keys seems also mistranslated.

  If I select e.g. the first entry "Nur freie Software", it does what
  the english version of the first entry says (--> Start Kubuntu). So it
  seems that in german all entries got the translation of a different
  menu item assigned (e.g. menu item 4 got the translation of menu item
  1).

  Kind regards,
  Jan
