Sorry Peter, but my message was misleading i think. I was talking about  the
boot helper CD. By the way: I just prepared fedora-livecd-soas-de_DE.ks and
it worked fine. Does it make sense to include it in the kickstarts
repository (like for all the other localized Spins)?
One more: With my image i still get this annoying password dialog (5 times)
did I miss something or is it really not fixed now?
