Description Marius Andreiana 2002-08-29 13:23:37 UTC 
When installing limbo2 in text mode there's no option for 'ro' keyboard. No
problem with that, as the druid which starts on the first boot has it.

Although I selected Romanian, after finishing booting the XF86Config was still
like this:

Option "XkbLayout" "us"

instead of "ro"

thanks

Not sure what to make of this.  There is still no "ro" keyboard in anaconda
(although there is an "ro-win", not sure if that is related), but you seem to be
complaining that firstboot (not anaconda) has placed an incorrect line in your X
config.

The firstboot program no longer has a keyboard configuration stage.  However,
the keyboard configuration tool (in system settings menu, or just
redhat-config-keyboard) does have Romanian and does place the correct line in
the X config.

Since the keyboard config does the right thing here, I am closing this bug. 
Reopen if you continue to have problems.

Right, ro-win is the correct keymap for kbd for the console keymap -- we then
write out the proper keymap (ro) for X.
