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 address@hidden
