I don't think it's an unreasonable assumption that, if you install a language pack, the installation will assume that you wish to use it when the application next starts. Of course, other vendors might have thought to ask the installing user whether or not that should happen but then IBM isn't an ordinary vendor.
Take a gap capture of Before and After the MUI install: the clue will be in that.

Sounds like the MUI installer is choosing the default start language based on the locale setting of the machine where it is being installed. Does the machine involved have it's OS regional settings set to Norwegian ?
In any case, I think you can override this behaviour by setting the INITIALUILANG property on the command line when you install the MUI pack MSI.

True, although I believe the MUI pack for Norwegian also contains support for Danish, Finnish and Swedish and Dutch and (I'm speculating here) the OP may have specifically selected language(s) excluding Norwegian. I think a GAP capture would reveal that the INITIALUILANG property, if set, makes a change to the Notes.ini, possibly the Country_Language parameter (?)

Tried to includer the property INITIALUILANG=us but it did not work.
The language when launching is still in norwegian
Will try a capture as VBSCAB suggested
allthough i might think it has something to do with regional settings on the server. (This is set to norwegian)
