Time to revive an old post....

Thank you for the step by step on choosing your language.

This probably did not work for Krogen because he did not have internet access.

Here are the steps I followed.

1)ALT+F2 then type kdesu konqueror and give root password. Browse to the locale.gen file in the etc folder and when you doubleclick it kwrite or another editor will come up. Delete all of the languages that you do not want. In my case I wanted US_EN ISO-8859-1. Click the save icon.

2)Open a shell. Enter: su and enter root password

3)Enter: apt-get install localepurge
This will install localpurge.

4)Enter: localepurge

Thats it.... no rebooting needed.
