<para>Note the relationship to the <literal>vconsole.keymap</literal> credential understood by
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-vconsole-setup.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>:
both ultimately affect the same setting, but <varname>firstboot.keymap</varname> is written into
<filename>/etc/vconsole.conf</filename> on first boot (if not already configured), and then read from
there by <command>systemd-vconsole-setup</command>, while <varname>vconsole.keymap</varname> is read
on every boot, and is not persisted to disk (but any configuration in
<filename>vconsole.conf</filename> will take precedence if present).</para></listitem>
