I presume you can · before you use the graphical setup, press Ctrl+Alt+F3 to switch to another virtual terminal. · Press enter to log in there as root. · Type this but do *not* press enter: loadkeys us · Switch back to Ctrl+Alt+F1 and continue graphical installation. · When you want to switch the layout back to US English, press Ctrl+Alt+F3 and press enter. This seems to be somewhat inconvenient. So you would prefer a hotkey to exist to switch keyboard layouts? Can you send a mail with a bug report to [email protected]? Regards, Florian
