sysklinux: how to setup different keyboard choice in syslinux.cfg?


Hello,
I have an usb stick with syslinux (and slitaz, tinycorelinux, magicparted, memtest, hdt.. on it).
I use this usb on german, french or uk keyboards for booting different PCs.
So, how to setup a menu in syslinux.cfg for changing the keyboard at boot time?

I found such menu extracts in internet:

---
label fr
menu label fr azerty keyboard (fr)
kernel kbdmap.c32
append maps/fr.ktl
...

kbdmap.c32 can be found in kernel.org, syslinux tar files.

But, where are
- fr.ktl
- de.ktl
- uk.ktl
files?
How to create them for syslinux?
Any help is welcome.
