Hi 
You can edit the keymap in /etc/rc.conf or if you have a grafical environment installed already there should be a program where you can change it too.

Also, remember to configure the keyboard in X too.

Re: keyboard settings ............[SOLVED]
Above "Hardware" there should be something like this:
# ----------------------
# LOCALIZATION
# ----------------------
#
HARDWARECLOCK="UTC"
TIMEZONE="Europe/Berlin"
KEYMAP="de-latin1-nodeadkeys"
CONSOLEFONT="default8x16"
CONSOLEMAP=
LOCALE="de_DE.UTF-8"
DAEMON_LOCALE="yes"
USECOLOR="yes"Did you skip parts during the installation? It should have asked you for the keymap.
Did you follow the Beginners Guide from the wiki?
