If you want to translate the installation messages to a different
language, you'll have to provide the following files:

utilities/dbootstrap/po/<LANG>.po
scripts/rootdisk/messages/<LANG>/{release_notes,boot_message}
scripts/rescue/messages/<LANG>/{debian.txt,debian.txt.<ARCH>,
	f1.txt,f10.txt,f2.txt,f3.txt,f4.txt,f5.txt,
	f6.txt,f7.txt,f8.txt,f9.txt,install.sh.txt,readme.txt}
README-Users.<LANG>.m4

(substitute <LANG> by the ISO code of your language and <ARCH>
for machine architecture (vme, sparc)).

For information about translating the documentation, see
documentation/README-authors .

The originals are the "C language" ones (messages/C/* ...)
except for the original .po files, which are dbootstrap.pot and
rootprofile.pot (gettext style).

Note: whenever you update utilities/dbootstrap/po/<LANG>.po file
please execute `make check-<LANG>' command (you should be in
utilities/dbootstrap/po directory while executing this command)
before committing: this allows to make sure that the translation
is *syntactically* correct.

Charset to use:

In all texts use the local character encoding.  The installation
routine will convert texts into IBMPC charset where it is needed.

I just don't know your names yet! :-)
