What do other systems do? I don't think they are this "in your face" about selecting a keymap, are they? I'm thinking in particular of Solaris and the last couple Linux distros I tried (I must admit its been a while). I think this may do more harm than good, in that it adds another potentially confusing menu for new users to go through. - Murray --W/nzBZO5zC0uMSeA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (SunOS) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE7ldn0tNcQog5FH30RAuJ3AJ9ZrLuAp8wi7dTagemp2bSx9204fACguD8i kzGwaaJ6JQiUAXzkKl5+veo= =WKfZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --W/nzBZO5zC0uMSeA-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
