IIRC, grub doesn't take the keymap into account unless the `at_keyboard` module is loaded. It is not the case at the moment. Also there seems to be an incompatibility between this module and some laptop keyboards (for example I have a Thinkpad X220 with libreboot/seabios payload and the keyboard stopped working after loading this module). >I believe we don't use grub-mkimage directly for the efi case for now, >which is the command we want to use to be able to include arbitrary >files in the image, hence my comment about the code needing some >refactoring. Even in the BIOS case, as far as I understood the code, the grub image installer function doesn't have access to `bootloader-configuration` data. I think that passing it down to this function would require some changes in the way the bootloader is installed. But I might have overseen something, that I why I was hoping for someone knowledgeable to jump in the discussion :) -- Romain
