What is missing in the preseed.cfg file?
TIA
Maybe not missing, but too much. At least since squeeze console and X
are configured in the same place. On a recent wheezy install I see that
only 'd-i keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap' is used.

Hope this helps,

Thanks for the try. That gave identical result. I took your 
suggestion one step further and commented out ALL keyboard 
settings. Got the same result ;/
I think I see a common thread in the preseed related 
problems I've been having.
Who proofreads the Debian documentation? I suspect it tends 
to be the author {as should happen} and other Debian 
*EXPERTS* {which is a too narrow classification}. I had that 
fallacy  demonstrated over 40 years ago when I wrote my 
first test procedure. Corporate policy was to have someone 
unrelated to the project "test the test procedure" before 
giving it to the production test technicians. I had 
unconsciously written into the procedure my particular path 
of experience. Where should I raise this issue? I 
occasionally run into the same apparent issue with the 
debian.org website.
