I want to install Arch with danish keybord, but I can´t figure out how to do it. I can see there is a file on the cd-rom with the name dk-latin1.map.gz The path on the install CD is /cdrom/arch/pkg/kbd-1.12-1.pkg.tar.gz#untar/usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/dk-latin1.map.gz

But have do I load danish keymap :!: Can someone tell me how

Perhaps it is the best to install with US keyboard and after installation and booting in your new Arch System you may set the keymap in the /etc/rc.conf
KEYMAP=dk-latin1

Perhaps it´s best to install with US keyboard , But I will install with danish keybord Have no one tried loading their own native keyboard layouts when they install ArchLinux.

hello,
i was told that it wasn't possible to change keyboard when i started using arch, maybe it will be possible on 0.7 ,
it is painful to do it but if i remember correctly all the characters you need is where you have your righthand on the keyboard, just test them with 'shift' and 'alt' also,

good luck,
