Yep, it's probably very hard as this is a chicken-and-egg problem, I'm afraid-->how to ask about the language before booting...and in which language�?�:-) I leave this opened anyway�: maybe someone will have some miracle idea. > > * When selecting the keyboard, sometimes the user does not know how to > recognize his/her keyboard.

So, kbd-config should be given a kind of "help" button or any other possibility for having a Hint about the selected keyboard. /me wishes we had Alastair here in Brazil... > > * The option for "no frame buffer" is like awfully long. Is it too > difficult to have a nofb option that translates into the whole string? Yep. Options should be as short as possible as typing them especially with a non-US keyboard is a PITA. Moreover, "nofb" has no A, Q and M so this will help the frenchies...:-) > * After installing a Sarge CD, the debian_version file in /etc says > testing/unstable, although it's only testing.

As APT entries points to aliases such as stable/testing/unstable, it makes sense to keep this as is and not use release codenames, IMHO.
