I first reported this Mon, 09 Sep 2002 21:34:28 -0400 here on cooker and got no response. The same thing herein described happened after reinstalling 9.0RC2 two more times, and now again with 9.0RC3. IIRC, this also happened in betas 2 and 3, but I didn't report it until the 9th.
Mouse works in installer. Mouse works in X in first boot. Mouse dead in all boots after first boot. I have no idea how to get mouse back without installing. Mouse is Logitech optical USB wheel mouse on PS/2 adapter, which worked perfectly using 8.2 (and all 9.0 first boots) and still does using OS/2.
