This is repeatable. The encoding during the install in OEM mode is correct (tested in the hostname field). The problem is during 'oem-config --only'. The environment is localized correctly, text in the UI is displayed correctly, the correct keyboard is being used, but entering accented, non-ASCII, characters results in the wrong characters being displayed.
Is it possible to re-run oem-config-prepare (without a full OEM install) and somehow debug the 'oem-config --only' step? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/771446 Title: Kubuntu installer uses wrong character encoding -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
