<PRE>'Twas brillig, and Frank Griffin at 18/03/13 13:49 did gyre and gimble:
&gt;<i> Trying a fresh install this morning (booting isolinux from grub), the
</I>&gt;<i> &quot;select your install type&quot; curses menu comes up, but the keyboard is
</I>&gt;<i> completely unresponsive.  There's no problem with the keyboard itself,
</I>&gt;<i> as it worked fine to navigate the grub menu to select isolinux.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> Isolinux gives the normal &quot;Detecting USB devices&quot; popup, but I suspect
</I>&gt;<i> that it's not working, as the keyboard is USB.  This is reinforced by
</I>&gt;<i> the fact that the keyboard works perfectly booting the same isolinux in
</I>&gt;<i> a VirtualBox VM.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> This was working OK on Mar 11 afternoon EST when I did the last install
</I>&gt;<i> on this box.
</I>
Perhaps stage1 is missing some kernel modules now that usb support on
recent kernels split them up a bit.

Here is the fix for that in dracut:
<A HREF="http://git.kernel.org/cgit/boot/dracut/dracut.git/commit/?id=a28e2aeefec38f9118f36b3324e44d6a7d4fda7c">http://git.kernel.org/cgit/boot/dracut/dracut.git/commit/?id=a28e2aeefec38f9118f36b3324e44d6a7d4fda7c</A>

I don't know the setup with stage1 enough to know if this is where the
problem lies or not tho'.
