[Bug 835504] [NEW] encryption password does not enforce user keymap setting on startup

[Antti Kaijanmäki]

Public bug reported:

This is probably not a cryptsetup problem perse (haven't tested with
alternate CD yet to manually running cryptsetup), but when setting up a
full disk encryption system with alternate CD I can't boot in to the
system after setup as bootsplash password promt does not accept my
password which contains some of the characters !"#¤%&/()=?. I suspect
that this is because bootsplash uses US keyboard layout and the
installer used FI-layout. Other possible reason is that cryptsetup does
not handle these special characters correctly.
