I think this is not only the case with the spanish keyboard. -> Try to get anaconda to load a swiss-french keyboard. -> In 'disk druid' you will have to hunt & peck according to the US layout when entering mount points. =8-O -> This is a US-centric version of RedHat! LOL
I can't reproduce this here at all. What sort of installation are you doing? How are you booting? Are there any error messages on tty3 or tty4 about loading the keymap?
- boot from CD - skip 'cd test' - wait - select 'English' language - select 'Spanish' keyboard and in partition screen it doesn't work
I forgot to put : tty messages don't show any strange. It looks like 'es' keyboard is loaded, but the truth is that it doesn't work. --- [...] running ['/usr/X11R6/bin/setxkbmap', '-layout', 'us', '-model', 'pc105', '-options', ''] moving (1) to step welcome moving (1) to step language moving (1) to step keyboard running ['/usr/X11R6/bin/setxkbmap', '-layout', 'es', '-model', 'pc105', '-options', ''] moving (1) to step mouse moving (1) to step findrootparts [...] --- -thanks-
Hmmm, I just did exactly that and have a Spanish keyboard layout that's working just fine -- / is shift-7 instead of right beside the right shift. :/
Mmmmh... I had the same problem with a French keyboard. The wrong root passwd got entered. This hapenned on the first installation of Fedora, but I wasn't able to reproduce it on later installations. I'm not sure what changed. I'll report back if I can reproduce the problem again.
