I see minor bug in mapscrn error message adding two "_" characters. So the missing map is not _8859-2_ but 8859-2. More strange, map file 8859-2 is available, because ot succeeds when started manually. Maybe your bug is related with the bug 904214? Keyboard is configured in the initrd by dracut, and there it could be missing or available too late. Werner Fink: I agree in general. But kbd fonts are in a bad shape. See bug 780862.
