Is there a bug filed? We might have just lost track of this, not
sure.
----- End forwarded message -----
Just to make sure this bug don't get lost, altough i did not check it out in
the 3.0.18 boot floppies.
When using the keyboard selection menu in boot floppies 3.0.17 (i did not yet
check 3.0.18, but i did not see anything about it in the changelog) and
selecting the frnech keyboard with euro support, (iso8859-15) the boot
floppies try to install the latin0 keyboard instead of the latin15 it should
install. The result is an error message about not finding latin0.
I suppose this is just a bad string somewhere, i would fix it, but don't
really have much time for checking into it right now, and may not find the
spot where to change it easily, or even miss ome of the spots.
Hope this bug report helps.
Friendly,
Sven Luther

Okay, great. Thanks for testing. I'll close the bug.

It's probably just missing from your console font. I doubt people will have
much need to type euro symbols during the installation process so I don't think
this is worth worrying about too much.
