Incorrect keyboard layout for selecting username and password during install of 20.04

Asked by Dag Bjerkeli

During a fresh install of Ubuntu 20.04, selecting Norwegian keyboard is provided and keys are responding correctly at that stage. But later when entering user information the keyboard setting is wrong.

It looks like it have fallen back to English keyboard-layout.
I failed to log in after my first install, so a new attempt I tried to write some special letters in the name field, and noticed that I got the wrong characters for the key.

The install is done i VMware workstation 15.

I tried to file a bug right now, but I might have done something wrong as after hitting the submit button I ends up back at the start where I get the option to enter a new bug.
