Hi. 2 workarounds:
(1) Alter the kernel commandline (thanks Frans Pop):
At the kernel command-line (SILO prompt) add these arguments:
languagechooser/language-name=English
countrychooser/shortlist=US
languagechooser/language-name=English
countrychooser/shortlist=US
console-keymaps-sun/keymap=sunkeymap
so the whole commandline will look like (no line breaks):
linux languagechooser/language-name=English countrychooser/shortlist=US
languagechooser/language-name=English countrychooser/shortlist=US
console-keymaps-sun/keymap=sunkeymap
(2) After the bootup, press Return 3 times:
(a) When the installer boots, find a key that functions as
Return (Right Arrow here; if this doesn't work for you, mess
with it for a while, find it, reboot).
(b) Using this, select the default entry at the first three
screens (English, US, US keyboard). Now that you've selected
the US keyboard, the keyboard layout is OK.
(c) If you're not entirely happy with this
country/language/keyboard selection, restart the installation
process (e.g. by Alt-F2 switching to tty2, Return activating the
shell, kill -9 debian-installer, Alt-F1 switching back).
HTH.
