| GRUB payload |
Keymaps are stored in resources/grub/keymap/
You can use the ckbcomp program to generate a keymap, based on Xorg keymap
files:
ckbcomp fr > frazerty
When you build GRUB from source, you can use the grub-mklayout program to
create a special keymap file for GRUB. Learn how to build GRUB
When you've built GRUB, using GNU Boot, take your kepmap file (generated by
ckbcomp) and run it through grub-mklayout like so:
cat frazerty | ./grub/grub-mklayout -o frazerty.gkb
Place the newly created .gkb file under resources/grub/keymap in lbmk. When
you build GNU Boot, an image with GRUB payload and your newly created
keymap will be available under the bin/ directory.
Learn how to build GNU Boot images
Many keymaps exist in the GNU Boot build system, but sometimes you must
manually tweak the file created by ckbcomp, adjusting the scan codes in that
file, before converting to a GRUB keymap file. Therefore, it would be unwise to
automatically add all keymaps in GRUB.
If you've added a keymap to lbmk, and it works, please submit a patch!
