Title: Split translations out of installation system

openSUSE-11.0: Evaluation
Priority
Requester: Mandatory
Projectmanager: Mandatory

Requested by: coolo@xxxxxxxxxx
Partner organization: openSUSE.org

Description:
The translations of yast are the biggest part of the installation
image.
These should not be part of the image, but should be pulled in from the
product media as the user selects them.

+ Duncan, we will need a Linuxrc support for this. Can Steffen look into
+ this feature? What comes to my mind is:
+ Linuxrc needs to download and mount the language image for the language
+ which user selected in bootloader menu (or English as fallback)
+ Linuxrc needs to provide a support (eg. a script) which YaST can call
+ when Language changes and downloads and "mounts" the new translation
+ image
+ It is questionable whether it should be YaST or Linuxrc who makes
+ checks if the asked image is already downloaded, IMO it should be
+ Linurc...
