Hi Nio,

*bashrc*
I will look into the bashrc file.  I think it might be nice to improve
the user's terminal experience.  It might also be nice to output a
message for the user to introduce the terminal.  Obviously a seasoned
use can simply edit it out of their bashrc file.

*locale chooser*
I suppose the list did not get installed.  I will look into this again. 
I made some changes in the install process when I added in the apt
handler.  It should be an easy, minor fix

*Manual*
I use x-www-browser, so I think for the live system I will need to
update-alternatives for links2
Ideally we could include Seamonkey in the Live system... but maybe we
need 2 ISOs.  CD sized, and full sized.  CD size ISO is still very
important as we all know.
