> livecd-iso-to-disk.sh: use LC_ALL=C, not LANG=C, since LC_ALL trumps 
> all other envvars, including LANG.  For example,
>   $ LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 LANG=C /bin/cat no-such
>   /bin/cat: no-such: Aucun fichier ou dossier de ce type

be aware that LANGUAGE trumps:

$ LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=da_DK /bin/cat no-such
/bin/cat: no-such: Ingen sådan fil eller filkatalog

$ LANGUAGE=da_DK.UTF-8 LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 LANG=C /sbin/parted
