Description chikitosan 2009-08-22 16:18:15 UTC

When installing gentoo (I tried only the installCD) the pause to choose a keymap is too short. I can only read half of the phrase that ask to choose a keymap, and nothing from the list of keymaps. It should last at least 30 seconds or so.

Greetings,

Antonio

The pause is currently 10 seconds, which is a good compromise, I think. I believe you can hit the space key and it will stop the timeout.
