After this message, you will be running "ash", a Bourne-shell clone.

Exit installer

If you do anything other than a purely default installation, there is a real chance that some dialogs will be displayed in English instead.

Character set to support:

Please choose the character set that should be supported by the console font.

Please select the size of the font for the Linux console. For reference, the font used when the computer boots has size 16.

Please select the size of the font for the Linux console. Simple integers corresponding to fonts can be used with all console drivers. The number then represents the font height (number of scan lines). Alternatively, the font may be represented as HEIGHTxWIDTH; however, such font specifications require the kbd console package (not console-tools) plus framebuffer (and the RadeonFB kernel driver for framebuffer does not support them either).

Font heights can be useful for figuring out the real size of the symbols on the console. For reference, the font used when the computer boots has size 16.

Encoding to use on the console:

Please choose whether you want to keep it. If you choose this option, no questions about the keyboard layout will be asked and the current configuration will be preserved.

Please choose whether you want to keep it. If you choose this option, no questions about the keyboard layout will be asked.

You will need a way to toggle the keyboard between the national layout and the standard Latin layout.

Right Alt or Caps Lock keys are often chosen for ergonomic reasons (in the latter case, use the combination Shift+Caps Lock for normal Caps toggle). Alt+Shift is also a popular combination; it will however lose its usual behavior in Emacs and other programs that use it for specific needs.

Not all listed keys are present on all keyboards.

No temporary switch

When the keyboard is in national mode and one wants to type only a few Latin letters, it might be more appropriate to switch temporarily to Latin mode. The keyboard remains in that mode as long as the chosen key is kept pressed. That key may also be used to input national letters when the keyboard is in Latin mode.

You can disable this feature by choosing "No temporary switch".

With some keyboard layouts, AltGr is a modifier key used to input some characters, primarily ones that are unusual for the language of the keyboard layout, such as foreign currency symbols and accented letters. These are often printed as an extra symbol on keys.

On the text console the Compose key does not work in Unicode mode. If not in Unicode mode, regardless of what you choose here, you can always also use the Control+period combination as a Compose key.

Activate Serial ATA RAID devices?

One or more drives containing Serial ATA RAID configurations have been found. Do you wish to activate these RAID devices?

The size entered is invalid

The size you entered was not understood. Please enter a positive integer size followed by an optional unit of measure (e.g. "200 GB"). The default unit of measure is the megabyte.

The size entered is too large

The size you entered is larger than the maximum size of the partition. Please enter a smaller size to continue.

The size entered is too small

The size you entered is smaller than the minimum size of the partition. Please enter a larger size to continue.

Reserved BIOS boot area

Home directory encryption failed

The installer failed to set up home directory encryption. Your home directory will be unencrypted after installation. This is probably a bug, and you may wish to investigate and reinstall.

In use by software RAID device ${DEVICE}

Software RAID not available

The current kernel doesn't seem to support software RAID (MD) devices. This should be solved by loading the necessary modules.

Software RAID configuration actions

This is the software RAID (or MD, "multiple device") configuration menu.

Please select one of the proposed actions to configure software RAID.

Software RAID device type:

Please choose the type of the software RAID device to be created.

No unused partitions of the type "Linux RAID Autodetect" are available. Please create such a partition, or delete an already used software RAID device to free its partitions.

Active devices for the RAID0 array:

The RAID${LEVEL} array will consist of both active and spare devices. The active devices are those used, while the spare devices will only be used if one or more of the active devices fail. A minimum of ${MINIMUM} active devices is required.

Active devices for the RAID${LEVEL} array:

Spare devices for the RAID${LEVEL} array:

Please choose which partitions will be used as spare devices. You may choose up to ${COUNT} partitions. If you choose less than ${COUNT} devices, the remaining partitions will be added to the array as "missing". You will be able to add them to the array later.
