Tested this mini.iso:

german de layout is ok. All umlauts are working, ß is working
and @ (AltGr + q) works too.

Cool! could you also please confirm that using "swiss german" keyboard layout AltGr + 2 = @ , so that i can proceed closing #395284 ? I belive this bug was misreported.

But I am unable to switch to another layout afterwards.
No matter what I choose, it stays de (there are endless
messages on vt1 "Reloaded keymap ..." though).

That's expected: at each frontend_go() call the keymap is reloaded (not optimal but effective and simple)

(Not sure if that is really a problem in the mini.iso or
if this because of some functionality missing to save space.)

taht's strange, i can successfully switch between german and other languages easily as many times as i want. Could you please try with priority = low typing some letters in the mainmenu, so that the search box pops up, after choosing a keymap ?

thanks

Attilio
