[9c713f35] | 3 | <para>Few things are more annoying than using Linux while a wrong keymap
|
---|
| 4 | for your keyboard is loaded. If you have a standard US keyboard, however, you
|
---|
| 5 | can skip this section, as the US keymap is the default as long as you don't
|
---|
| 6 | change it.</para>

[9c713f35] | 8 | <para>To change the default keymap, create the

|

[9c713f35] | 10 | symlink by running the following command:</para>

[4c1a3af] | 13 |
|

[9c713f35] | 14 | <para>Of course, replace <filename>path/to/keymap</filename> with the path and
|
---|
| 15 | name of your keyboard's map file. For example, if you have a Dutch keyboard,
|
---|
| 16 | you would use <filename>i386/qwerty/nl.map.gz</filename>.</para>

[4c1a3af] | 17 |
|

[9c713f35] | 18 | <para>Another way to set your keyboard's layout is to compile the keymap
|
---|
| 19 | into the kernel. This ensures that your keyboard will always work as expected,
|
---|
| 20 | even when you boot into maintenance mode (by passing `init=/bin/sh' to the
|
---|
| 21 | kernel), as then the bootscript that normally sets up your keymap isn't run.</para>

[9c713f35] | 23 | <para>Run the following command to patch the current default keymap into the
