Bug Description
Binary package hint: busybox
While using the initramfs environment, a user can't press caps lock and have it take effect.
This is troublesome if the user is trying to accept a string of input from usplash that is all caps lock letters.
Using showkey in initramfs (with kernel command line break=bottom) shows that the keycode is recognized (as keycode 58). It just doesn't do anything.
