Assuming that "buildtime" means

  isolinux is loaded and prompts for a boot lable

There is a KBDMAP option that can be used to specify/load a different
keyboard layout. See "keytab-lilo.doc" which should be part of your
syslinux package for details.

If my assumption was right, using "keytab-lilo.pl" to produce a German
keyboard mapping should solve your problem. Or take the attached file
and add

  KBDMAP german.kbd

to "isolinux.cfg".
