please support generating initramfs with import of an non us keymap to make passwords with special characters possible
Issue #3
resolved
Initramfs uses an us keymap by default. Please enable a feature to include another keymap into the initramfs created by better-initramfs. Doing so you would help enable un rapting a cryptsetup wich was made using an alternative keymap like spanish or german ... At the moment it is not possible to enter passphrases that contain for example characters like ¿, ñ, ö or ø Thank you :-)

For the copy & paste heroes among us: It's
busybox dumpkmap >keymap

repo owner The support is in the code, it will load /keymap if it exist in sourceroot.

All right, I will support it.
for now you could login to your terminal, run 'busybox dumpkeymap >keymap' and copy the keymap to sourceroot/ dir
Initramfs on start will run
loadkmap /keymap
if present, that could be quick solution for your use case.
