Hi,

I've been booting a CD installer of 2.2.1 RELEASE but encountered a
problem on typing a character with my USB keyboard. At the login
prompt, I can't type any character like 'installer' or 'root' to
proceed the installation process. I'm pretty sure the USB keyboard is
functional. I've tested 'default boot' and 'disabled ACPI' options but
seems no effect. I'm using a 2-way quad-core Intel Xeon IBM x3650.
I think you need to set the following tunable within the bootloader:

hw.usb.hack_defer_exploration=0
