keyboard (console-data?) problem
I'm trying to upgrade to testing on an old (1996) laptop (Fujitsu 
 FMV-5120 NA2/W).
Hand-rolled 2.4.22 kernel.
On this machine, I want a "standard Japanese" keyboard layout 
("jp106") because otherwise lots of keys are in the wrong place. 
This worked in Woody.
Tried dpkg-reconfigure console-data, selected this type of 
keyboard, then got the message
  Deferring virtual terminal setup until console accessible.
Why wouldn't the console be accessible? Any suggestions?
Regards, Jan
