Hi all, i'm new to AL. I'm spanish user, so when booting i cannot use chars like "/", that are very important, so i tried to load keymap "es" or "es-cp850", but "loadkeys" cannot find them.
Can't install AL without "/" or "=", and so.

Hello newbie.
I'm also a newbie and when I think of it I never managed to get my swedish keymap to load either. I installed with us layout,it's painful but it is possible to do it.
es-cp850 is the right one for you so if you just do an arch base installation and put that keymap in /etc/rc.conf and reboot you are done.
Maybe mr green can help you more,look for him in here,or dp
Hasta la vista for now
arch + gentoo + initng + python = enlisy

1) make sure pkg kbd is installed
2)edit /etc/rc.conf: change the KEYMAP to
KEYMAP="es-cp850.map.gz"
reboot and hope that it works
good luck

Hi dp
Can you not explain how you load your keymap when you boot up arch from cd.

Hi dp
Can you not explain how you load your keymap when you boot up arch from cd.
you mean the installer-cd? i didnt loaded the keymap, because the elementary keys i know where they are on the us-keyboard
see this:
... the [/] is next to the right [shift] and the [=] is next to the [<-X-]
i dont know, if the installer-cd has kbd on it - because if it were there, then with loadkeys it would work (you must be root to use loadkeys)

Thanks dp,now I don't feel like a fool anymore. I have installed arch many times so I know the us keymap layout pretty good now.
Hope the other guy sees your cool pic!

it's not my pic ... it's a crosslinked pic from the web ... and the colored buttons do not have any meaning for us :-)
