We’ve got two of the Dedicated Root Servers from 1and1 and one of them has been in German since it was set up. This would be great except the only German I can remember is how to ask for beer.

If you’ve got one and would like it to talk to you in English instead, here’s what you do:

• Install Yum or some other method of getting updates or RPMs
• Install system-config-language
• Run system-config-language
• Choose English and hit OK

All your system messages should be in English now.
