what does your /etc/fstab look like? what does a 'disklabel sd0' show?

hmmmm...the answer might be: you don't. however, if you use 'dt' as your
console, there is support for a few non-US keyboards. also, if you're
using X, you can use xmodmap to remap the keys appropriately. i believe
there is an example or two available on ftp.netbsd.org. when we move to
wscons (hopefully by v1.5), supporting international layouts on the
console should be a lot more straightforward.
i hope this helps some.
later.
