As you chose el_GR.UTF-8 as the default locale, you have to find a way to provide a working UTF-8 console. If jfbterm works for 2nd stage, it could also be used when installation is over, couldn't it? Anyway you may have a look at packages/languagechooser/languagelist packages/languagechooser/prebaseconfig there have been recent changes about console configuration. > * setting up the X keyboard debconf value to 'us,el' and the > XkbOptions to 'grp:alt_shift_toggle' so that keymap switching is > possible instantly. This is not trivial, I guess that X configuration should be modified to load d-i values when they are available. Is there a way to know that we are currently configuring a package from within the debian-installer? Denis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
