Quoting Joseph Vidal-Rosset (joseph.vidal.rosset@gmail.com): > I regret sincerely that the installer of Debian meets again a bug (2) that I (2) has been reported already and, contrary to what you seem to suggest, this bug never happened before (in the very old days, we had different keymap handling problems but nothing similar to what you experienced). It needs someone to investigate it in deep to understand why we have this regression. Please note, however, that we're in the middle of a quite invasive change wrt console management utilities (http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/ConsoleSetupSwitch, URL given from memory) and this is obviously a consequence of this. > met some years ago. I am worried also about the comparison with the Ubuntu > installer and the Debian's. Ironically the Ubuntu's is based on Debian but > works on my computer, not the Debian's. I regret it because I prefer Debian > and because a popular desktop like Ubuntu cannot live without Debian. You compare apple and oranges. What you mention as "Ubuntu installer" is the installer for the stable version of Ubuntu....and the Debian installer you tried is a development version. If you want to compare things, please compare the installer for Debian lenny and the Ubuntu installer.
