<div dir="ltr">Have Ubuntu Server 12.04.2, built Xen 4.3.0 from source as well as xen-tools 4.3.1. All locale, keyboard and console setup is en_GB.UTF8, validated with dpkg-reconfigure console-setup, keyboard-configuration as well as manually inspecting contents of /etc/default.<div>
<br></div><div>I can execute a xen-create-image which completes without issue and the resulting image creates and works fine for both PV and HVM guests.</div><div><br></div><div>However whilst xen-create-image is processing, more specifically near the start of the "hooks" there is a visible alteration to my dom0 font (thins out) and the keymap alters to what I believe is a en_US configuration. The file contents in /etc/default has NOT been altered and issuing a "locale" to my dom0 terminal shows all is en_GB.UTF8, however the keyboard map is definitely altered.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I correct the problem either by issuing a dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration or a dpkg-configure console-setup, make absolutely NO changes to the menu options pre-selected on screen and just OK through each step. At the conclusion my keymap is back to normal.</div>
