Control: reopen -1 Switching keyboard in the text installer still fails! So reopening this bug.
While debugging this, I executed /bin/setupcon in terminal (this is done by the installer in "Configure the keyboard" step). With --verbose option, I then get on /dev/tty1 executing printf. on /dev/tty2 executing printf. on /dev/tty3 executing printf. on /dev/tty4 executing printf. on /dev/tty5 executing printf. on /dev/tty6 executing printf. on /dev/tty1 executing kbd_mode -u. on /dev/tty2 executing kbd_mode -u. on /dev/tty3 executing kbd_mode -u. on /dev/tty4 executing kbd_mode -u. on /dev/tty5 executing kbd_mode -u. on /dev/tty6 executing kbd_mode -u. executing loadkeys /tmp/tmpbd.MBbsf loadkeys: error while loading shared libraries: libkeymap.so.1: cannot open shared object file. No such file or directory Thus keymap is not set. Please fix loadkeys in udeb. @installer-team: This error is only displayed, when using --verbose option, which is normally not set when running setupcon inside the installer. Without --verbose it just says "setupcon: gzip is not accessible. Will not save cached keyboard map." which seems an uncritical message. So, maybe we should set --verbose option by default, to un-hide such errors? Holger -- Holger Wansing <hwans...@mailbox.org> PGP-Fingerprint: 496A C6E8 1442 4B34 8508 3529 59F1 87CA 156E B076
