I just put a CVS build (not yet finished 3.0.8) there. Works much better for 
me. Now it fails when trying to install the base system. I tried to install 
over the net with my shiny new DSL setup and I got:
 couldn't work out current architecture
in debootstrap. Is this a known problem? Maybe my debootstrap is too old?
debootstrap_0.1.11_m68k.deb (with 0.1.13 available, will try with 0.1.15).
Anyhow, the mount problem should be gone now.

Can I add the missing keymaps to keymaps.sh

case "$arch" in
    m68k)
        export keymaps="atari/atari-de.kmap.gz
...
        mac/mac-us-std.kmap.gz
        mac/mac-us-ext.kmap.gz
        mac/mac-fr2-ext.kmap.gz"
        ;;
and maybe also to powerpc?
    powerpc)
        export keymaps="amiga/amiga-de.kmap.gz
        mac/mac-fr2-ext.kmap.gz
...
        mac/mac-us-ext.kmap.gz
        mac/mac-us-std.kmap.gz"
# Broken in console-data see bts#50588
#        mac/mac-de-latin1-nodeadkeys.kmap.gz
        ;;

Maybe I should leave out the broken keymap, but the others shouldn't hurt?
Where does the installer know the available keymaps from, does it look
at the console-data(?) package?
