Package: debian-installer
Severity: important

I am testing Wheezy.  Good deal!  However I am running into some
differences from Squeeze that are causing problems.  Here is the
first.  I can't preseed the keyboard with Wheezy.  Works fine with
Squeeze.  But Wheezy stops and asks the keyboard question.

I am specifying "console-keymaps-at/keymap=us locale=en_US" on the
command line but it is being ignored.  This is a regression from
Squeeze.  It prevents an automated installation.

I am using kvm and libvirt as the easiest way to reproduce this
problem with exactly the following command:

  virt-install \
    --name daze \
    --ram 256 \
    --vcpus 1 \
    --hvm \
    --nographics \
    --disk path=/home/images/daze.img,size=3 \
    --os-type linux \
    --os-variant debianwheezy \
    --network bridge:br0 \
    --location http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/wheezy/main/installer-amd64/ \
    --extra-args "console=ttyS,9600n8 initrd=debian-installer/amd64/initrd.gz console-keymaps-at/keymap=us locale=en_US interface=auto hostname=localhost domain=localdomain auto url=http://internal/debian/preseed-kvm.cfg";

Using s/wheezy/squeeze/g on the above works okay and preseeds the keyboard.

Thanks,
Bob

See the updated preseed documentation: use keymap=us instead.
