Hello!

I am trying to create a localized custom CD as described on

  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization

The custom CD is based on ubuntu edgy alternate CD.  As described in
the above howto, I use the following append line to preseed locale and
keyboard settings in isolinux.cfg (I have added line breaks for
readability)

  append  debian-installer/locale=de_DE \
          kbd-chooser/method=de-latin1-nodeadkeys \
          file=/cdrom/preseed/install.seed \
          initrd=/install/initrd.gz \
          ramdisk_size=16384 \
          root=/dev/ram rw quiet --

Preseeding the locale works with this setting.  But presetting the
keyboard don't work.  I am still asked to "Detect keyboard layout?"
and so on.

With the help of google I have found several other methods to set the
keyboard layout:

    kbd-chooser/method=de-latin1-nodeadkeys
    kbd-chooser/method=de
    console-keymaps-fb/keymap=de
    console-keymaps-usb/keymap=de

But none of them works :-((

Is this a bug or am I just using the wrong method?  Anyone knows how to
find out the correct method?

Thanks!
