Hello

What do you think about this? Is not perfect, but at least can make more people happy.

* A simple demo script that can be added to syslinux-iso profile. * Needs lilo (for keytab-lilo perl script) and kdb (for keymaps) * Some keymaps require unicode support, otherwise will fail. So maybe (if this is implemented) lilo can als provide a keymap-lilo-unicode (below is how this can be generated) * Each keymap file takes only 256 bytes. * The script is here: https://gist.github.com/714822

A much better keymap support is using gfxboot.c32, but this is another history ;)

I motivated by this feature request: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/21725

To make this work done I need to split syslinux.cfg in some parts, any issues? mkarchiso will parse all to find/replace "%XYZ%" like archiso2dual is doing in my install_dir branch.
