Title:
non-us keyboard layout not setup in initramfs
Status in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Description: Ubuntu Artful Aardvark (development branch)
Release: 17.10
In Artful the /etc/console/cached.kmap.gz file does not exists, in its place,
it uses some files with more precise names susch as cached_UTF-8_del.kmap.gz.
However the initramfs scripts still uses cached.kmap.gz . The consequence is
that the keyboard layout remains US in the initramfs which is a problem for
full encrypted installation when entering passphrase.
Proposed solution is to make a symbolic link from cached_UTF-8_del.kmap.gz
to cached.kmap.gz. Then the initramfs tools will find the
/etc/console/cached.kmap.gz file and includes it in the initramfs.
