I've had to fight with this on several systems.
In general, I create a custom keymap somewhere under /usr/share/keymaps.
Something like /usr/share/keymaps/i386/qwerty/<host>.kmap.gz.
I link this to /usr/share/keymaps/default.kmap.gz
I link this to /etc/console-tools/default.kmap.gz
I make sure the following /etc/rc?.d/ links exist (see update-rc.d docs
for info):
/etc/rc0.d/K20keymaps-lct.sh
/etc/rc1.d/K20keymaps-lct.sh
/etc/rc2.d/S20keymaps-lct.sh
/etc/rc3.d/S20keymaps-lct.sh
/etc/rc4.d/S20keymaps-lct.sh
/etc/rc5.d/S20keymaps-lct.sh
/etc/rc6.d/K20keymaps-lct.sh
/etc/rcS.d/S05keymaps.sh
...my preferred keysettings are started at boot, and at each of
runlevels 2-5. The 'stop' entries (0, 1, 6) don't actually do anything.
Cheers.
