Description Arnaud Vacquier 2014-02-26 00:42:38 CET 
Hi !

I have a little suggestion :
For no-english new users, it is not easy to understand for press "F2 language" before 10 seconds (because the first option is run)

My suggestion it is remove the 10 seconds for installer (and liveDVD) and open the language menu by default.

Now all users can take the time for choose their language :)

Thank you,
Sorry for my bad english
Arnaud

Is this about the Live installer or the regular installer?
