Where did the adb (mac-ext) keyboards go?
Selecting _any_ keyboard from the list prevents further input.

Hello team,
thanks for the good work! here's an important patch for us translators/users
of a non-english language:
unmerge 122750

thanks
Despite initial appearances, it now seems that 122750 and 122141 are
unrelated problems. Submitter, can you still reproduce the problem

Please take a look at the log for bug #122750 and see if you can shed
any more light on what's going on. In particular, the stuff about
inspecting /etc/inittab at different stages of the install to see
whether it has the right contents.

I can't be sure, but I suspect that the language chooser is responsible
for this bogosity of LANGUAGE in /root/debootstrap_settings, and it is being
propigated into base-config's environment. This is borne out by:

So how do the ramdisks get built these days? Just copy the binaries over?
Well, they get stripped first, see scripts/rootdisk/strip-executables.sh.
The kind of ELF damage that we're seeing here is usually a symptom of using
a strip that expected to target another architecture, or had some
