Description Maxim Dziumanenko 2004-03-01 16:27:04 UTC 
Description of problem:
If lang=ru (for example) specified as argument for loader 
it doent'd take effect until anaconda runs (in non-expert mode)
or until keyboard selection dialog (in expert node)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-9.91-0.20040226192747

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot from Fedora2 test1 CD
2. Specify "linux initrd=initrd.img lang=ru ramdisk_size=8192" in
syslinux prompt
3. See "Loading SCSI driver", "CD Found", "Media Check" dialogs in 
English
  
Actual results:
Messages in English

Expected results:
Messages in Russian

Additional info:
However lang=XX is not used by default, it should be useful for custom
kickstart bootdisks
