tag 316006 pending thanks This was indirectly implemented for Lenny (or maybe even earlier): tzsetup depends on localechooser, so users get asked to select a country before that point.
However, I think it's time to just include localechooser in the s390 initrds so that the selected country can also be used as a default for choose-mirror. However, it would be best to run localechooser *after* network-console, so that users can select the country using the newt frontend (after connecting over ssh) instead of the text frontend. This means that for s390 the menu item number needs to be set to 2110 instead of 1000. I've prepared changes for both localechooser and d-i itself to implement this. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
