Well, given that a consecutive "hard" reboot worked, I don't know if this can be easily reproduced and/or investigated.

You've got the answer..:-) Indeed, there's already a wishlist bug report about languagechooser for being able to setup a C "locale".

I guess that Joey Hess could better explain why...but, indeed, I'm wondering similarly : when will we make "stable" the default choice for the installer at the key places?
