Bug Description

I just installed the 2004-10-08 daily/current amd64 iso. I chose English (United
States) as language and Europe/Sweden as location, but I got a us keyboard
layout without (to my memory, it is 15-20 minutes ago by now :) answering a
question about keyboard layout. On Kamion's request, the debian-installer/syslog
is on the referenced URL.

You got a us keyboard layout in the graphical login, or in the installer?

Both. Or at least on the second virtual console when the installer was still
running (after reboot), because I do remember having problems finding my way
into /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ to adjust tcp window sizes into something sensible
during package download. I'm not sure I had any reason using the keys that
differ while inside the acual installer, but you don't have different keymaps
for console and console-in-installer, right?

Sorry guys, this is not reproducible by me again. I must either have done
something wrong or been struck by a moon phase.

I just tried the same install iso, giving the same answers, and I did get a
keymap question.
