rebind key in TTY
 

Hello,
one of the keys on my laptop is dead, it is the D key. I'm getting by in X with this command:
xmodmap -e 'keycode 135=d'

This rebinds D to submenu key that i don't use.
However this only works in X. I'm trying to build minimal Arch installation where i would like to use TTY consoles as much as possible.
My question is how to rebind keys in TTY?

Awesome, almost gave up on this. Will test it as soon as i home from work. Thanks!

I've tried the method of changing keybinds from the link, didn't work on this distro but gave me an idea to explore - create a custom keymap and load it from rc.conf. Aside from few problems it was easy enough following tips from Arch Wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KEYMAP

Problems were: not all keys are loaded in TTY compared to X. My choice for alternative D, key 135, wasn't recognized so early in boot instead i had to pick a different key (CapsLock). To add to confusion xev tool is reporting X keycodes that are different from codes used in TTY so is of no use. CapsLock in X is keycode 66, in TTY it's 58. Best place to look for correct codes is in keymaps themselfs /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/.
