With the gui installer, in the dialog for the proxy server
it was unpossible to type in the @ character. I have worked around
this by copy and past it from the example

The keymap "Swiss German" worked, umlauts ä, ü, ö could be typed
correctly.
And I can confirm this; with keymap "Swiss German" typing an @
gives an q (so the AltGr key doesn't work?).
In de_DE for example it works.
This is a known issue we only discovered recently ourselves: the AltGr key
indeed does not work in the graphical installer. I can only suggest to
use the regular text based frontend to work around this problem.
What is the key combination needed to type a "@" on a Swiss/German
keyboard?
AltGr-2 on Swiss/German keyboard (PC-Style). Mac used Apple-G.

I did some tests with a regular GTK i386 miniiso and this is what i got
- With de-latin1 keymap the @ symbol is obtained with AltGr-q
- With sg-latin1 keymap the @ symbol is obtained with AltGr-2
isn't this what one should expect?
I also experienced that to get a "@" with sg-latin1 keymap using AltGr-q
you ned to add
altgr keycode 16 = at
to the corresponding keymap file.
