By wrong do you mean it is a QWERTY keyboard? Or it is a French one but wrong in some other way? What happens if you execute loadkeys /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz (it doesn't matter whether you do this in maintenance mode or after regular start of the machine) Is the contents of /etc/default/keyboard correct? It has to contain lines like the following: XKBMODEL="pc105" XKBLAYOUT="fr" XKBVARIANT="" What happens with the keyboard if you use the command 'setupcon' when the machine is in regular mode (not in maintenance mode)? I am puzzled by the fact you say the keyboard doesn't work in maintenance mode but it works in normal mode. This is because in both cases the keyboard is configured by the command loadkeys /etc/console-setup/cached.kmap.gz and there is nothing there to depend on /usr being mounted. Can you edit /etc/default/console-setup and put there the line VERBOSE_OUTPUT="yes" and see if there are some error messages?
