I would blame the postinst of locales for this. But anyway, this is what works. Create the nfsroot WITHOUT installing the package locales (remove it from /etc/fai/NFSROOT). Then set the debconf information, after that install the locales package. It does not work if the locales package is already installed. This is my little script, that I run: echo "locales locales/default_environment_locale select de_DE.UTF-8" | $ROOTCMD debconf-set-selections echo "locales locales/locales_to_be_generated multiselect de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8" | $ROOTCMD debconf-set-selections export DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive $ROOTCMD aptitude -R -y install locales -- regards Thomas
