It would be better to include support for all keyboards layouts right on
the CD. Exclude the language strings if the space is needed, but include
the keyboard layouts. I believe those files are small enough to be
included.
Plus, on the first install screen ask for both language and keyboard (in
the same screen), which may be different; for instance, I have Spanish
keyboard but prefer to use English in software.

Which is a nuisance.
