<para><userinput>rm

/usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/defkeymap.map.gz:</userinput> We
|

remove this file because we don't know which keymap you

need to use. We will be defining the default keymap in

chapter 7 when the system configuration files are created.</para>
|

/usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/defkeymap.map.gz:</userinput> There
|
||||
are some problems with having a defkeymap.map.gz when that file
|
||||
wants to load another keymap file. Instead of running loadkeys with the -d
|
||||
option to load the defkeymap.map.gz file, we have come up with a slightly
|
||||
modified method that we use in the loadkeys bootscript (see chapter 7).
|
||||
We don't load a default keymap, but instead load the proper keymap
|
||||
directly, which you will need to specify in a configuration file which
|
||||
that bootscript uses. This method overcomes this bug.</para>
|
||||
|

<para>However, if you want to create a defkeymap.map.gz file regardless,
|

here's how you should do it:</para>
|

|
||||
<para><screen><userinput>cd /usr/share/kbd/keymaps &&</userinput>
|
||||
<userinput>ln -s <path-to-keymap> defkeymap.map.gz</userinput></screen></para>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>Replace <path-to-keymap> with the path to the keymap you have
|
||||
selected, relative to the /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/ directory. For
|
||||
example, if you have chosen the US keymap, you would replace it with
|
||||
i386/qwerty/us.map.gz.</para>
