(solution) colemak layout not used in console after install of GhostBSD

[nteleky]

After installing GhostBSD, selected keyboard layout was used in X/xorg, but not in console. According to this vt is the current default console. Keyboard layout is in

/usr/share/vt/keymap/colemak.acc.kbd

Solution: edit

/etc/defaults/rc.conf keymap="colemak.acc.kbd"

and

/etc/rc.conf keymap="colemak.acc.kbd"

Additionally, renamed keymap file in syscons for clarity:

cd /usr/share/syscons/keymap/ && cp colemak.iso15.acc.kbd colemak.acc.kbd

(likely unnecessary, but if syscons was used, it would not load due to the naming inconsistency)

This is a note in case anyone else experiences the same issue.

My bad, I was initially under the impression it was actually FreeBSD with some preconfiguration. I now realize it has a different init system and some other significant differences. I'll keep it FreeBSD only on these forums.
