Title:
  Cannot login 16.04 server keymap wrong

Status in debian-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I just download 16.04 server, the 2016-01-11 build and installed it on
  Virtual Box 5.0.14.

  The problem I got was with the keyboard mapping in the password
  setting dialogue. When characters is not mapped correctly login is
  blocked.

  The preferred language was set to English, but I did set the keyboard
  map as Swedish (from list) during installation.

  During installation and in the user password setting dialogue,
  characters are mapped correctly what I can see (enabled with 'show password').

  But at login keyboard is still American English.

  The character I have in the password is '*', which gives '\' with the
  Swedish key marked '*'.
