rescue mode has no locale set, which results in spamming message that way falling back to "C" locale

Comment 1 Manuel Hiebel 2013-05-28 23:21:01 CEST 
where do you see that ? I don't have see such message last time

Version: Cauldron => 3
Source RPM: (none) => drakx-installer-rescue

Comment 2 Samuel Verschelde 2013-08-27 15:55:17 CEST 
AL13N, can you provide a bit more information? 

Setting version to cauldron because it's too late for Mageia 3 now.

Comment 4 AL13N 2013-08-30 14:46:23 CEST 
this is from a PXE rescue boot, i updated the kernel and initrd from the mirrors in the alt0/ directory, but it's still the same... and note that it mentions mageia 3; and before that it mentions mageia 4

i also note that the cauldron rescue seems to be dated 18th may... maybe it's never been rebuilt since?
Comment 5 Samuel Verschelde 2013-08-30 14:54:21 CEST 
I remember that kind of message, I saw them also at the end of installation via DVD IIRC. So, I'm not sure it's specific to rescue, although it's more visible there.

Comment 8 Thierry Vignaud 2015-05-18 04:02:21 CEST 
Actually this looks fixed as of mga5, so there's no need to explicitly set locale to C
