>Description:
Choosing 'Belgian' keymap during installation has no effect. It adds 'encoding be' to /etc/wscons.conf but that's it. During boot, there is an error message related to this, the same as with running this command:
# wsconsctl -k -w encoding=be
wsconsctl: WSKBDIO_SETENCODING: Invalid argument
FYI, I remember I had this problem back when I once tested NetBSD-2, and unfortunately it still exists. This is a very annoying bug, and I would like to see it fixed ASAP.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run this command:
wsconsctl -k -w encoding=be
