I noticed. Here's a quick workaround that will at least keep dinstall happy
(somewhat):
Instead of using the 'configure keymap' step, use the console on VT #2,
do an 'echo "mac-us-ext.map.gz" > /tmp/kbdconf' and proceed with the
installation. (What exactly is required in this file, Frank?)
You'll have to answer questions about keyboard configuration again on the first
disk boot (Mac users won't find their keymaps there, for some reason) but the
kernel default map should be close enough to get on from there.
