Sounds like you got a European keyboard. Try booting with knoppix keyboard=us xkeyboard=us.

Probably German, i know theirs is qwertz.. (British one is qwerty tho but the ~ and other keys are moved around)
 
Yeah, like these guys said, you should make sure that you boot from CD with lang=us and that you there's a little flag in the bootom right of you taskbar that is the US flag, before you install. You should be able to change it post-install from the KDE regional/language section of the control center.

I've got another 3.4 iso where keyboard and language are set to English, but its got other problems so I haven't released it yet.
