Change Keyboard-layout

[nemesis]

Hi,
how can I change the keyboard-layout after installation ?

kbdcontrol -l /usr/share/syscons/keymaps/german.iso.kbd

this will be resetted after a reboot.
how can I make the change permanent ?

thx !

Just out of curiosity, how often do you delve down on the console ?

I have actually never logged in to the console after the install, on any of the sites I have installed on.
So for me I would see no benefit from changing this value.
