Hello everyone,
I tried the d-i daily built image: built the 21st-Oct-2006
Md5sum:

I choose the Italian language ...
and the keymap the installer selected was an azerty :-(((
But I have a qwerty. :-((((
and I coludn't choose the keyboard I wanted.
(i.e./i386/qwerty/it.kmap.gz )
So could you, please, insert in the installer a question for the
users to select their keymap from *all* the keymaps in the installer?
This would allow *you* not to write thousands of questions for each
language and kbd layout in the installer ;-)
and us, the /users/, to have a working environment :-)
TIA,
Giovanni
