I did several installations with either proxmox or virtualbox and after the installation, at the initial reboot, the keyboard is in qwerty whilst I set (and I’m sure) the keyboard in french.
bug or feature ?
You already know it 
Installer doubts? please paste here:
/root/anaconda-ks.cfg
BTW Italian keyboard is always set correctly in interactive and manual installation modes
this is it, it sounds something in my ears
keyboard --vckeymap=us --xlayouts=‘us’
Are you sure you set the French layout? 
Sadly Yes and i removed the us keyboard…i will try with a stock el7.
Firstly i thought this comes from the console of proxmox…but it is the same with vb
By the way what is the keyboard you use in italy ?

It’s QWERTY with accented letters. Symbols are placed differently from US keyboard. I can type on both 
You could try the CentOS install mode from NethServer ISO, too!

I want to add that the issue is not by ssh, only when i use the console of the virtualisation software
Of course, SSH client runs on your workstation: it has the workstation keyboard!
BTW this is my keyboard line in /root/anaconda-ks.cfg
keyboard --vckeymap=it --xlayouts=‘it’,‘us’

Please, start with this attempt:
loadkeys fr
Does it load the correct table?
If it’s good, then you can try to reinstall in “interactive” or “unattended” mode by adding as boot parameter:
keyboard=fr
BTW after installation on a running system, the correct command to fix the keyboard is
localectl set-keymap fr
For more details
man localectl

well to close this thread
set keyboard at the installation
set language at the installation
think to set the keyboard layout in french in the setting of your proxmox VM…this is what I missed
