Have you considered some kind of on-screen indicator (e.g. "Preparing MeeGo...") while it's doing that, to prevent first impressions being bad?

Battery indicator problem.
I charge my batteries out of N900 so when battery is low of charge instead of pull on charger I shutdown phone and I swap the battery with a new and full charged battery.
Unfortunately MeeGo (and Nitdroid) still indicates that battery is near a full discharged one.
Only Maemo reports correctly a fully charged battery.
Why and solutions ?

But ... but... don't you see the impossible nature of your request?
What you asked us to help you with was equivalent to asking how to fit 5 gallons of milk into a container than store only 3 gallons.

Why not change the keyboard layout in X configuration file to match your hardware keyboard layout

sudo cp -a <mount dir>/* <sd card root>
Which will work. I did that to create a bootable SD card for my Nook Color port project.
