What is the correct way of setting up an abnt2 keyboard layout in preseed?

I am creating a preseeding file for an automatic ubuntu 11.10 installation and I am having problems setting up the keyboard configuration. I need the keyboard to be configured as abnt2 so I added this to the file:

# Keyboard selection.

# Disable automatic (interactive) keymap detection.

d-i console-setup/ask_detect boolean false

d-i keyboard-configuration/layoutcode string br

d-i keyboard-configuration/modelcode abnt2

But the keyboard is set as us. And the first time I log into the new installation I get an "incomplete language support error".

What is the correct way of setting up an abnt2 keyboard layout?

AFAIK you need all of

d-i     keyboard-configuration/variant select English (US)

d-i     console-keymaps-at/keymap select us

d-i     keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap select us

and possibly

console-setup/ask_detect=false console-setup/layoutcode=us keyboard-configuration/xkb-keymap=us

on your append line of txt.cfg (or whatever isolinux config)
