I tried that, but the Umlaut keys still do not work.

I investigated the issue and found out the following:

If I enter interactive setup I am able to change the locale and the boot 
keymap capable of handling German keys and characters.

But my final image contains two boottime keymaps under /etc/console. One is 
named boottime.old.kmap.gz. I think somewhere in the iso creation process 
there is reconfiguration of the keymap. Any idea where to look at to change 
this behaviour?
