I did a further installation and has something to report for the
translation team:
1. (at the second screen after boot and selected German language):
On top: "Wählen Sie die Tastaturbelegung aus"
(= nicely printed Umlauts)
Below: "WÀhlen Sie das Tastaturlayout fÌr die PC-Tastatur"
(= smells like an UTF-8 problem)
2. Not related to translation in the first place, but ...
If there are large partitions to format some status / progress bar
might help. At least a message: "Formating harddisk - this might take
some time." would be necessary IMHO.
3. The screens
"Execute a shell"
"Install Lilo"
and perhaps some more are not yet translated into German.
Sorry I was not able to detect the untranslated screen I mentioned above
because my install failed to install a kernel image and had to work around
some other problems so I did not faced the install step two after reboot.
(This was mentioned in a former mail.)
Kind regards
Andreas.
