Hi Free, Thank you for your comments. I'm glad to hear that. As I said, I had no problem after all since I had rawrite2 somewhere anyway, but having this corrected makes Demudi neater. Actually, you can select language and keyboard in different screens by selecting back just as you describe. Problem is, somehow X will be configured for US layout keyboard anyway if you select Spanish keyboard and English language (kind of strange). Since the computer is always run under X, all I had to do really is to edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (not 100% sure about the path where this file resides) to change the layout from "" to "es". Thanks for pointing to the relevant forum. The thing here is I was scared to read the partition manager in Spanish, but I'm not sure that this is part of the Debian installer? Can you clarify so I can get in touch with the relevant people? I noticed it's a different tool to what it used to be (some fancy flavour of fdisk I think), but I don't know wether it is an application in itself or it is just part of the Debian installer. Whatever it is, if I could get hold of a list of messages (in English) this software has, I'd be happy to translate as accurately as possible and provide the translated list of messages. Especifically, the "finish and write partition table" reads "abort and write partition table" in the Spanish translation, not good.
