** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: debian-installer
  
  I burned a alternate CD from a daily Jaunty AMD64 ISO (20090111) and
  when I booted from the CD, the intinal gfxboot screen worked fine and
  allowed me to use my wireless keyboard. However, once I selected the
  'Install Ubuntu' option and got to the text installer, the keyboard
  would not work at all. I first thought that the system has stopped
  completely because all I could do is hard reboot, however another user
  with the same specs and a USB keyboard as me reported on the Ubuntu
  forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1037138 mentioned that
  using a PS2 keyboard allowed them to proceed. The same person just wrote
  that their USB keyboard worked in the install of Alpha 1 but not in
  Alpha 2.
  
  I have tried a number of images on CD's and a USB stick and my keyboard
  works with none of them.
  
  I had managed to use my wireless keyboard before with the alternate
  installer to install Intrepid Ibex, so something has changed since then
  to prevent my wireless keyboard from working with the alternate
  installer. Using the live CD is not an option because a) I prefer a
- barebone installation and b) the manual installation option does not
- work on the live CD as stated in the Alpha 2 release notes.
+ barebone installation and b) the manual partition option does not work
+ on the live CD as stated in the Alpha 2 release notes.
  
  I am using the Microsoft Wireless Multimedia Keyboard 1.1 which does
  work normally in Ubuntu.
