Comments/Problems:
Base config should honour locale settings. The console should be configured
to display the codepage requested by the language selected else the
fresh system displays mangled characters in many programs notably 'dselect'.
I suggest Debian Installer installs the package 'fonty' and configures it
accordingly if the selected language implies coding other than 8859-1.
