Description Christian Kalkhoff 2012-12-01 20:58:51 UTC
Description of problem:
Although I set keyboaard layout "de" as the default keymap the root password was input with "us" layout. After installation german keyboard layout was activated by default.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Installer of 18 beta

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start to install Fedora 18 (x86_64) DVD
2. Select another keyboard layout (I left us layout as second choice)
3. Enter a root password with ambigous keys (e.g. z and y are swapped between "de" and "us"
4. Finish install and try to login with root
  
Actual results:
Password is not accepted, have to change keymap to "us" to get into.


Expected results:
Password should have been input with german key map.
