Description

The 2.2 Release AMD64 CD Installer does not provide any choices for keymap, screenmap or video font. Only '(default)' can be accepted.

I have just confirmed that international keyboard choices are available and selectable on the 2.1.5 AMD64 CD Installer.

This issue has been seen before in #807.

This does not appear to be directly related to 801. The installer is intentionally configured to skip those steps. I'll look at what it takes to undo the step skipping.

In the installer, it was possible to choose something else instead default. In the 2.2.3 no more keymap are available in the installer

/usr/share/syscons/keymaps still seems to be empty, which leaves it with no list to select from. The video font and screenmap selections still also blank, though those could probably just be removed.

It was missing a change on src.conf to re-enable syscons during build.

Works, all selections are populated with choices and appear to work (font changes once selected and so on)
