Bug Description
The console-data package is not included the "standard" task as used in the preseed file. The result is that, after rebooting, no matter what you type as the user name, a small diamond will be displayed as the character (keymap or charset map missing?).
Manually installing console-data will fix the problem. But you'll have to install ssh and do it remotely.

Good! It's supposed to be console-setup; console-data is obsolete.
You have a problem, but it's not due to console-data being missing. If that fixes it, it's by unsupported luck. console-setup is supposed to work on its own. Could you provide more details on your setup?
