Then I use localepurge & docpurge to get rid of some locales on programs and files that I'd never use. Install in this order:

note: Mine were on my external memory card in a folder named Downloads

cd /media/mmc1/Downloads
dpkg -i libpcre3_6.7-1osso1_armel.deb
dpkg -i color_ls_1.0-1_armel.deb
dpkg -i pcregrep_6.7-1osso1_armel.deb
dpkg -i localepurge_0.5.8_all.modfied.modfied.deb
You will have to be in the terminal to install those. And by "login as root", I'm assuming that you also have rootsh or easyroot installed. They take up like 20k of space, allow you to enter the terminal and type "root" and then from there allow you to do the things that I've stated above.

Amazingly enough, as an ex-MCSE (I've yet to have a client need to update) almost all of my prior commands were done all in the terminal.
