I'm not sure if I got you clearly :-)
Anyway, I guess you're looking for something like this:
Create a hidden section that is always installed with the common files, one section for the english lang and one for the french lang, and ask users make their choise from your components page.

There are several ways to make your installer. One could be by setting up a custom page e.g. with radio buttons and ask users for their choise. I think the proper way should be with the components page. Take a look at the included NSIS examples to find out how you'd manage it.

OK, here comes a minimal working example, modify it to suit your needs.
I hope it is going to help you :-)

code:

name 'sections test'
outfile 'sectest.exe'

!include "Sections.nsh"

Insttype "/CUSTOMSTRING=Please make your choise"
Insttype "English Interface"
Insttype "French Interface"

page components
page instfiles

Section "Common FIles (Required)" 
  SectionIn RO
    # common files here
SectionEnd

Section "English Language Files" SEC_ENG 
  SectionIn 1
    # ENG files here
SectionEnd

Section /o "French Language Files" SEC_FRA 
  SectionIn 2
    # FRA files here
SectionEnd

Function .onInit
  StrCpy $1 ${SEC_ENG}
FunctionEnd

Function .onSelChange
  !insertmacro StartRadioButtons $1
   !insertmacro RadioButton ${SEC_ENG}
   !insertmacro RadioButton ${SEC_FRA}
  !insertmacro EndRadioButtons
FunctionEnd

How do I make it so that on the components page, only one of the choices can be selected, and not none or all?
