Hello,

I cannot get FC2 to install on my Athlon-XP, mobo MS 6380E, chip set VIA
KT333.

After booting the installer kernel a dialog appears if I want to check
the installation media. At that point the keyboard (ps/2) is dead. I
cannot do anything, not even alt-f2 or ctrl-alt-del.

Already tried
  linux text
  linux noprobe
  linux acpi=off
  linux apm=off
  linux i8042.nomux
Nothing worked.

FC1 and Win-XP work fine on that machine. The list archives didn't help.
Neither did www.fedorafaq.org or google.

Thanks in advance for your help
