HD Install :: Get french keyboard after install

Hi,

I did an HD-install with dsl-hdinstall
It's fine...
... but I can't get anymore french keyboard.

I've tried:
root@box~# loadkeys fr
Loading /usr/share/keymaps/i386/azerty/fr.kmap.gz
root@box~#

But keyboard stands us.

What should I do?

Thank you very much.

Afther this you must do : startx

I have the same problem excpet that I want my keyboard to be swedish, I tried "startx" didn't work! Does anybody have a better idea?

You have to kill X first (by crtl+alt+backspace), then use 'loadkeys fr' and finally restart X by startx. If you have a hd install you can put 'loadkeys fr' in one of the startup files so that you don't have to do this manually every time you boot the pc.

sorry,
which startup files do you mean precisely?
i tried .xinitrc but due to the startx it became a loop.
i also tried to rename the default.keymap.gz but it wont work either, after boot its still us, typing
loadkeys -d
startx
then its on de
so?
