[SOLVED] Re: Colemak layout at boot time
Yes that's right! Thank you. :)
sudo update-initramfs -u -k all
did the trick. I have now Colemak at dm-crypt! Also in virtual consoles.
GRUB editor still uses qwerty, but that's not a concern, dm-crypt
password prompt was most important.
For disclosure, I have full disk encryption on / but /boot and /boot/efi
are not encrypted, no separate partitions.
So, full instruction to achieve your keyboard layout of choice is:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration
sudo update-initramfs -u -k all
sudo reboot
probably not needed: sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup, but keeping it
in my notepad in case it's required after all in fresh install.
Problem with keyboard-configuration: should this be reported as a bug?
sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration should trigger
update-initramfs on it's own, automatically, otherwise effects of this
command are being ignored until new kernel arrives, computer is rebooted
with new kernel with new initramfs. Correct?

Then I would rebuild my initramfs with update-initramfs.
