Fayez & Christian,
You are on the right track that this is a language problem, BUT !!!

> problem:  Netview installation fail,
>            missing :  bos.loc.pc_compat.en_US
>                       bsl.en_US.pc.loc

Regardless of the indicated message, NetView is expecting to find
IBM-850  (En_US)
Note the capitalization of E, U & S (small n).
You will experience "locale" problems if you use ISO8859-1 instead,
and manage to get past the installation error message.
