With bg_BG.UTF-8 I see strange behavior too with or without kickstart. Looks   
like the screen/window is reset to something like 1x10 chars at some point and 
unicode_start is undone/never done. I tried it with qemu. 

Comment 2 W Agtail 2006-03-16 15:49:35 UTC
i still see the same using FC5 test 3
any update one this one?

Comment 3 W Agtail 2006-03-16 20:57:19 UTC
also, /etc/sysconfig/i18n ends up with:
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"

Comment 4 Chris Lumens 2006-10-10 16:28:09 UTC
This should be fixed in the next build of anaconda (should make it in for FC6 too).
