  I think the following is the best phraseology:
  
   A swap partition is strongly recommended to provide virtual
   memory for your system, yet none was detected.
 
 yet none were detected I think is the proper grammar.
 
 Sounds good to me.

It can be singular, as evidenced in The New Fowler's Modern
English Usage[1].

 I don't think that is necessary, as you can use more than 1 swap
 partition. 

Yes, but in this case, none (ie, 0) were detected...

Sorry, Mt.

 Which version of whiptail are you using ?

I'm using official bf 3.0.22 idepci.
It easily reproducible :
* rescue + root
* select fr then France flavor
* release notes (in french)
* configure keyboard 

Then the listboxes of keyboard choices is displaying over main-menu.
(azery-latin1 is selected, which is right).
