Hello
I am working on this now, the support is very basic, but I think the
most important symbols are remapped.
I created a scripts that generated *.ktl files from [kbd] package
using keytab-lilo. I also patch this program in this script, so can
use map thats needs unicode.
https://gist.github.com/1187908
In some cases we have:
* two maps versions one non-unicode and other unicode.
* Non-unicode and other unicode but them are the same (keep with one)
* one map non-unicode only
* one map unicode only
* nothing because conversion fails.
The script also makes syslinux submenus (in a really basic way, no
fancy titles), also converts filenames to be more ISO-9660 friendly.
So the steps to implements this are:
* Make a package from generated files from the script.
* Install this package in build.sh
* Copy kbdmap/ directory (from installed package) to syslinux/
directory.
* Add to syslinux.cfg these lines:
---------
MENU BEGIN kbdmap
MENU LABEL Change Keyboard Map
INCLUDE kbdmap/kbdmap.cfg
MENU END
---------
After you selected the desired keymap, syslinux drops to boot: prompt,
just hitting enter, returns to main menu (do in this way for now, at
least at this moment I can not find a way that does not reset keyboard
remap)
I uploaded here an small qcow2 image (768K compressed) for qemu/kvm, for
anyone want to test it.
Only contains syslinux things.
$ qemu-system-x86_64 kbd.qcow2
