If i want to modify the source code and make my own install cd,then how should i do that? You take the srpms, add your patches, bump the version number and rebuild the packages. Put them in a separate directory, run createrepo on them which will create a yum repository. Point to your custom repository along with the existing Fedora repository. Run pungi (for regular installation images) or livecd-creator (for live cd/dvd) or use revisor for a graphical wrapper around both.

From the dpkg-reconfigure message: snip Many packages in Debian use locales to display text in the correct language for users. You can change the default locale if you're not a native English speaker.
