I've written a script that uses python curses to allow me to change the locale (edits /etc/default/locale) on the raspberry pi. It has a basic menu that allows me to select the language.

I want to run this script before the lxde session starts. I've tried editing the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file but when I do, the pi doesn't boot at all, it just has a black screen with a blinking cursor.

Am I approaching this the right way? Is there a better way to run an interactive python curses before lxde starts?

Try using crontab in Linux. You could launch the program at booting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron
