I assume this is with a daily built CD-based image? If it was a netboot of floppy image the reason could be there. Nothing has really changed with regard to keyboards in d-i. If there have been changes, they must have been in console-data (where d-i takes its keyboard definitions from), but I see no real changes in its changelog. The only cause I can think of in d-i is maybe a difference between the 2.4 and 2.6 kernel. There have also been some changes in localechooser that could maybe cause this. Tracing this will probably take a bit of work (unless anybody else has a better idea of the probable cause). To narrow down the cause of the problem, could you see if Cyrillic characters work with the following: - daily built image booted with install - daily built image booted with install24 - Etch Beta1 image booted with install - Sarge official image booted with linux - Sarge official image booted with linux26 For each case, please check in the syslog what exact keyboard type and keymap were selected: 'grep "kbd-chooser.[0-9]*.:" /var/log/syslog'.
