Description of problem:

It's confusing to see a lot of language available at grub in the livecd-en when there is only english.

setting priority to release_blocker so it's seen, but feel free to decease.

Manuel, this language choice is part of grub, right? 
So the question is: can we disable some languages for grub on a livecd/livedvd when the livecd does not support them? It might save some space (but probably not much ...).
Otherwise, it's just added feature and it's not really a bug ...

I don't understand the problem.

I just installed using:
Mageia-3-beta3-LiveCD-KDE4-en-i586-CD/Mageia-3-beta3-LiveCD-KDE4-en-i586-CD.iso

All the language options were English for various regions, which cannot be confusing to any English speaker.

I don't see any language options related to grub at all, however I followed the default bootloader option which was grub2. 

Am I missing something?

I speak from the grub in the isos, not after the install, only the iso maker can change that (or not)
Comment 4 Barry Jackson 2013-03-21 23:28:03 CET 
Ah got it - yes - never ever used that option in a legacy menu before.
Malo asked me about this, but I can't help. :\

Removing release critical. Setting to enhancement (although it's about removing feature rather than adding some).

Priority: release_blocker => Normal
Severity: minor => enhancement

I think Anne & Thomas have decided there would only be LiveDVD for mga6, hence this bug is no more :-)
