Selecting "Don't touch keymap" should certainly > work. I saw this also today during an install. I installed from a slightly old netinst iso, and after tasksel it upgraded several packages, including console-*. During this upgrade, I was asked which keymap to use, even though I had already told it to use the appropriate Brazilian keymap (which of them it is, I forget right now). Then console-something (-data?) failed with exit code 9. Apparently it succeeded on the second pass. I don't understand why console-* is asking about the keymap when d-i has already provided one, or, of course, why it's failing on upgrade. -- see shy jo
