Pipe command

When I boot off the FreeBSD 9.0 RELEASE DVD and I am in the "Live CD" I can't seem to get the Vertical Bar to work. I'm using a UK keyboard and what normally works for me is to go Shift and then the key to the left of the Z key and then the vertical bar appears. In the Live CD this does nothing.

So the question is, how do I get a vertical bar (using a UK keyboard) when in the Live CD? I need this for some of my restore commands :stud Specifically:
Code: 
gunzip -c /media/bootdir.zfs.gz | zfs receive -vdF bootdir
 
Run kbdmap(1) and choose the correct keymap. After that, it will use the correct keymap (untested). On a US keyboard, the pipe is the shifted version of the backslash key.
