           Summary: French keyboard if you choose Spanish language

If you choose Spanish as your language during install, a french azerty keyboard
is selected(!).
There is no question about the keyboard until AFTER passwords had been set. As
you don't need the keyboard until then (unless you custom partition your HD),
and you don't see what you are typing at this point, this means that passwords
are messed up and the user won't be able to login if he/she corrects the
keyboard afterwards and sets the proper Spanish keyboard.
In few words: it will be nearly imposible for a novice to install MDK9.2 if they
have a Spanish keyboard.

P.S. I was using the official MDK 9.2 CDs, as available on bittorrent for
MandrakeClub users, when this happened. If this problem is also present in the
boxed version (or even on the download version when it's available for
everyone), it's going to make Mandrake look quite bad in the Spanish market. :(
