Hi all,
I've been running FC1 on my notebook and it is ok.
In order to upgrade from FC1 to FC2, I booted from FC2 first CD.
Then it shows the screen asking for options. I just hit Enter and the installation process began, but my keyboard stopped working from that point.
I can't even go through the screen that asks if you want to test the media before continuing. Ctrl+Alt+Del don't work too. My only options is to keep the power button pressed for about 5 seconds to get the machine booted.
When I installed the FC1, I had to keep hitting the keyboard during the kernel load to get it recognized, but this procedure didn't work with FC2.
Thanks for any help

You have to go into BIOS and disable USB legacy support. I have an HP ze4315us and had the exact same symptoms. It is awfully hard to work w/o a keyboard.
I believe the USB legacy support messes with making USB fake PS2, for really old operating systems, which don't understand with USB devices like MSDOS, etc. You should not see any difference in the way things work on your to be installed FC2 system, without legacy in BIOS.
Also, try entering "linux acpi=on" at the boot prompt. I needed to disable USB legacy support and also assure that acpi=on was in my kernel for things to work right.
No problem w/ poor English, I'm a native speaker and know mine could improve also.
