Hi cr9c
Load  kmaps.tcz.
You must be in the console to change the keyboard. If you are in the GUI, click on the  Exit  icon and select  Exit to Prompt.
Then execute the following command:
Code: [Select]
sudo loadkmap < /usr/share/kmap/qwerty/fr-latin9.kmap
startx
If the keyboard is to your liking, click on the  Editor  icon and add the following line to your  /opt/bootsync.sh  file:
Code: [Select]
loadkmap < /usr/share/kmap/qwerty/fr-latin9.kmap
    [EDIT]: Changed  bootlocal.sh  to  bootsync.sh.  Rich

Hello guys  :)

I installed TinyCore 10.1 and configured my /home and /opt directory to be persistent. After that, I have set my keyboard in French using your process above and everything work fine!

But right now i've got a little problem. I followed this process http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/wiki:vmware_installation and I don't keep my Azerty keyboard on my system.

Do you got some solutions to my issue?

Thanks in advance,

Pierre
