I suppose that main-menu should set the variable LANGUAGE. With this variable cfdisk tries to speak French. This is what I do: First get a quick d-i shell prompt: make TYPE=<here_some_type_with_cfdisk> shell And then: # LANGUAGE=fr # export LANGUAGE # cfdisk /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc And this is the result I get: cfdisk 2.12 Unit Size: 122942324736 bytes, 122.9 GB Heads: 16 Sectors per Track: 63 Cylinders: 238216 Nom Fanions Part Type Type SF [ Size (MB) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ disc3 Primaire Linux 2146.80* disc5 Logique Linux 6333.47* disc6 Logique Linux ext2 [HOME] 10001.95* disc7 Logique Linux ext2 [USR] 10001.95* disc8 Logique Linux ext2 [DEBIAN] 29997.60* Logique Espace libre 98.71* disc9 Logique Linux 1003.49* disc10 Logique Linux ext2 12847.89* disc11 Logique Linux ext3 1003.49* disc12 Logique Linux ext3 5502.72* disc13 Logique Linux ext2 1900.04* [Amor [D [ Aide ] [Maximiser] [Afficher] [Quitter ] [ Type ] [ Unit [ Basculer le fanion d'amorce pour la partition courante I supposed that the problems were caused by incomplete translation but now I see that the problem is different. The text breaks at some of the non-ASCII symbols. For example cfdisk prints "Unit" instead of "Unité de disque", "[" instead of "[Étiq.]", "[Amor" instead of "[Amorçable]", etc. On the other hand the German umlauts are showed. I don't know what makes the difference. Maybe there is some bug in the locale C.UTF-8. Anton Zinoviev -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
