Problem on boot: cannot open locale definition file

I'm using virtualbox to test the last "slitaz-rolling.iso". I select Brazil and start slitaz, but in the Searching sound cards screen I get:

"cannot open locale definition file `pt_PT@euro': No such file or directory"

(I got this error with all languages)

Did you check the md5sum hash of your iso? I don't think there have been commits to anything related to locales, so that shouldn't be the problem. It's probably just a corrupted download. Try downloading the ISO a second time

Re: Problem on boot: cannot open locale definition file

glibc-locale owns the files the system is looking for when locale is set by system.sh

glibc-locale.tazpkg  is not included in the iso because it is 22.1 mb installed.

Thanks guys but I got same problem. I selected English US and tried to start Slitaz Live (screenshot here).

@wildarch

I tried to download again but I got the same error.

@mojo

How can I include glibc-locale before boot slitaz?

Orange boot menu/SliTaz core Live/tab key/add sound=noconf screen=text nomodeset

nomodeset is not required for virtualbox

Login root,password root

Start Xsession:

# slim
