This was using the boot.iso, and the keyboard is a PC Concepts clone of
the M$ "Natural" ergonomic split keyboard (PS/2 connection to MoBo).

Does anyone else see this problem?


This is from an earlier thread ("trying to install rawhide"):

Yeah, somehow the us layout became azerty instead... there's nothing in

we're not perfect yet  :-)
