Description aon.912646721 2004-03-07 11:18:41 UTC 
I tried various boot options:
gentoo agpgart dokeymap cdcache nodhcp
gentoo dokeymap nodhcp
gentoo-fb dokeymap
In no case I was prompted for the language select, although this worked without problems for the 1.4 LiveCD

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. enter LiveCD into CDRom Drive, make PC boot from the drive :-)
2. enter "gentoo dokeymap" or any _any other:_ boot string containing "dokeymap" 
3. hit "enter" :-)

Actual Results:  
boot process continued until shell prompt appeared, allowing no selection of keymap 

Expected Results:  
show the selection table for the different keymaps and the corresponding prompt
just as LiveCD 1.4 did

similar bug appeared in 1.0 LiveCDs (Bug #8324, #12275) but where reported to be
solved
