Title:
  encryption password does not enforce user keymap setting on startup

Status in “cryptsetup” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  This is probably not a cryptsetup problem perse (haven't tested with
  alternate CD yet to manually running cryptsetup), but when setting up
  a full disk encryption system with alternate CD I can't boot in to the
  system after setup as bootsplash password promt does not accept my
  password which contains some of the characters !"#¤%&/()=?. I suspect
  that this is because bootsplash uses US keyboard layout and the
  installer used FI-layout. Other possible reason is that cryptsetup
  does not handle these special characters correctly.
