as long as you're happy with it, and don't mind the gotcha,

Many thanks for this recipe.
For the moment, though, I am going to stick with my
cp /sys/lib/kbmap/uk /dev/kbmap in my profile

that's a good chicken-and-egg question. at the stage of boot
where kbmap is run, factotum has not been run and there is no
fileserver. the adva

Yes, I tried that but it didn't work either. This probably because it's
boot not 9load that's running at this point..

Hi,
I want to setup my new plan9 termnial with a UK keyboard. I found kbmap
but this appears to be an interactive program. Even if you do
