Since a keyboard is a prerequisite to operate the rest of the installer the very first question it should ask is which keyboard layout you'd like. We believe it is already soon enough: after language/country selection so as to pre-select a good default, and before everything else.

Bug#662626: The keyboard layout selection should be the very first option in d-i
I have unsubscribed from the appropriate sites N times but they still keep coming. Surely there must be some way to stop them. They outnumber spam 20 to 1. It's driving my crackers. What is even worse, I couldn't get Debian working in the first place which probably let to this problem. Is it possible to report the bug reporting system as a bug itself ? It really gives a bad impression of debian.
