In the console, if you chose the macintosh standard keyboard, then
the key engraved Option or Alt is your Meta key. If you chose the
extended keyboard, then the key engraved with the apple or cloverleaf
on the left side of the space bar is your meta key. I chose extended
because as a long time mac user I'm used to the command key.
If you chose a pc keyboard, all bets are off. To reconfigure your
keyboard, dpkg-reconfigure console-data.
