Thanks, Steve, for pointing this to -boot.

Artur, we would appreciate if you could test one of the daily builds
of Debian Installer, which you'll find linked from
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer

Hopefully, you should not find specific issues when choosing Polish as
installation language and you should be prompted for the keyboard
layout, indeed.

If you or your sister come on some issues, please try to carefully
record the steps you went through and what you saw on screen.

Then, feel free to send an installation report (how to do this is
on the abovementioned web page).
