Line 13: Line 14:

Our current installer installs language packs and language support packages, usually from the network. Ubuntu Express needs to do the same, since not all language packs will already be unpacked into the live filesystem.

In our current installer, if the install CD does not contain all required language support packages, the user is asked whether to download language support from the network. This can help to avoid flooding poor network connections.
