I'm not sure what you're asking.  If you're talking about a blade
1000, I assume the keyboard is USB, and the kernel in use is clear.

If you have a messed-up keyboard, the solution is to get in via ssh
(if it's set up) or the serial port (if that's set up).  If you
installed via the console, I think the serial port gets set up as a
login tty.

I think you do `dpkg-reconfigure console-data' to change the keymap.
Check the installation instructions, where I think it's mentioned.
