<p>Following on from my <a href="https://personaljournal.ca/paulsutton/freebsd-2-98wq" rel="nofollow">previous post</a> which discussed changing the X11 keyboard layout.  I had to also change the console layout.</p>

<p>This can be undertaken through editing the appropriate configuration files or with a tool called <strong>bsdconfig</strong> which needs to be run as root.</p>

<p>The online man page can be <a href="https://www.unix.com/man-page/freebsd/8/bsdconfig/" rel="nofollow">found here</a></p>

<p>This is a menu driven / text based interface. I can&#39;t, as yet provide a screen shot, but the man page is comprehensive enough so a screenshot isn&#39;t really needed.</p>

<p>To change the keyboard map you will need to find the appropriate section and make the changes.</p>
