I am not sure that console keyborad layout "mx" exists.

Perhaps solving it this way?

Yep! Worked like a charm! Thank you Igor!

Now I see same error "/usr/bin/ckbcomp: Can not find file "symbols/mx" in any known directory" while running armbian-config

 

Starting armbian-config I get following warning:

 

otlabs@nanopineo2:~$ sudo armbian-config 
/bin/bash: warning: setlocale: LC_ALL: cannot change locale (es_MX.UTF-8)

 

In main armbian-config I navigate to "Personal" and in "Keyboard" field I see "Change console keyboard layout (us,mx)". Selecting this option produces following output with errors (please, take a look at line in bold as it again mention "mx" keyboard layout):

My fix is here to solve problems at first login - for the future, when we rebuild images. For now you also need to remove mx from /etc/default/keyboard and run setupcon -k --force

Thanks a lot! Solved that issue.
