I had this exact same problem. I'm using a USB keyboard, although my system has provision for PS/2 connections - I only get the NAKS error when the USB keyboard is plugged in, although the keyboard itself works fine in Linux. I got around the "can't type during install" thang by using a PS/2

I was under the impression that the fee was paid in order for the manufacturer to put an MS logo on their product saying "Yes it will work with MS crap". Even if it doesn't have the "MS Approved" propaganda plastered across the box, as long as the company provides drivers in some form, the
