I'm in the middle of this myself. I think my problem is /etc/kbd/default.map is gzipped. init.d/kbd-boot.sh says this about that: if [ -r /etc/kbd/default.map -o -r /etc/kbd/default.map.gz ] then loadkeys /etc/kbd/default.map fi I gunzipped default.map and rebooted (hate doing that) and all seems well, although I'm still finding and removing some other things I tried -- stty ^H, .Xmodmap changes... -- so I'm not sure yet.
