recover from non-english keyboard layout at boot?





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

It seems that the system comes up with hebrew keyboard layout. Which - AFAIK - has no small latin letters. And it asks for disk password. Which contains small latin letters.



In grub the layout is english, so I can enter whatever I need. I can even go to command line using "break" as a boot parameter. But I have no idea how to enter a command in the command line, as I have only hebrew letters, latin capitals, and punctuation.



How to recover from this situation?



Is there a way to make sure that password entry is always using english layout?
