Are you sure we have to include the language pack to enable
proper setup of the locale? the problem was (from looking at
the debug console) was that it couldn't find/create this
local on the live environment for some reason. I may be
confusing things, so please let me know if I did...

Unfourtunately, I didn't look over the debug consoles when
it was in the process of detecting them so I have no idea
currently, but as I described before:
1) I had both eth1 && eth0 available after casper setup.
2) none of them were configured and assigned an ip address.
3) I had only the "loopback" interface entry in my
/etc/network/interfaces file.

Ok, when someone selects hebrew as his keyboard layout
and/or locale it should:

1) make hebrew input available , as it does now.
2) autoconfigure alt+group shift behavior for enabling
alt+shift switch of the lanugage input (i.e. alt+shift ==>
switches to hebrew from english and vice versa)

You mean I may have chosen the wrong one?
