Description mussadek 2012-12-19 21:14:55 UTC 
i noticed, grub2 in fedora set the keyboard mapping using ‘KEYMAP=’  in the command line , but that can not be understandably by systemd cmdline after booting , instead it should use ‘vconsole.keymap=’ in grub2.cgf file,so like this the system in tty will use the correct layout , please updated this in next-release
Comment 1 Mads Kiilerich 2012-12-20 21:05:54 UTC 
grub2 will obey the instructions anaconda placed in in /etc/default/grub .
Comment 2 mussadek 2012-12-20 23:07:30 UTC 
yes true , but this the point it was *KEYTABLE* insted of *vconsole.keymap*
 in /etc/default/grub .
Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2013-01-02 15:05:07 UTC 
Sorry, what's the bug here?  I don't see that anaconda writes any keyboard layout info to /etc/default/grub.  Is that it?
Comment 4 Adam Williamson 2013-01-03 06:54:34 UTC 
I don't think this is broken any more, I've tested it. mussadek, could you give more details about how exactly you tested, and what version of F18 you tested?
Comment 5 mussadek 2013-01-03 10:58:54 UTC 
hi

i am on the latest updated version of fedora Fc18

i do not recall the version exactly when i test it, but i remember one of these  anaconda update or  kernel update  put a the *KEYTABLE* string in the grub.cfg instead of *vconsole.keymap*, without regenerating my original  /etc/default/grub.
