Which  wrong characters?  Pseudo-graphics? You  can not  use koi8-r  for
pseudo-graphics anyway --  as I mention in the part  you deleted, koi8-r
already has this problem... I'm sure, you've seen sysinstall with koi8-r
fonts loaded... Are you saying, people  on the Russian fido groups know,
which  pseudo-graphics  can and  which  can  not  be used?  koi8-u  just
replaces some _more_ of the pseudo-graphics with letters.
