It may be as simple as hacking on the dispatch.py file.
...
installSteps = [
     ("welcome", ("id.configFileData",)),
     ("betanag", betaNagScreen, ("intf", "dir")),
     ("language", ("intf", "id.instLanguage")),
     ("keyboard", ("id.instLanguage.getDefaultKeyboard()", "id.keyboard")),
  ...
Note that whacking out the language line may cause problems later in the 
dispatch list.

If you use a kickstart file and configure both the keyboard and lang 
options in the kickstart file, then those screens will not appear during 
the installation.  Anaconda does not display any screens that are fully 
configured via a kickstart file.  Do you really need to hack anaconda 
files, when you can have this option that is already well tested? 
Please see

for more information.

Use "linux ks=floppy" when the first CD boots to use the ks file that 
selects your language preferences.  There are other ways to retrieve the 
kickstart file too.
