I made it nearly through the installation of 7.2 beta 2 but couldn't 
type in the root password. Then I realized that my HP-Pavilion 
9680C USB keyboard wasn't recognized. I was able to plug in a 
non-usb keyboard I had lying around and it worked, so I completed 
the installation.

When I booted the newly installed OS, it still wouldn't recognize 
the keyboard. I did not have this problem under version 7.1.

Any ideas?

BTW - this shows the weakness of a "graphical" install. I 
apparently didn'y use the keyboard for anything until the installation 
was nearly done, so didn't know it wasn't working. There needs to 
be a keyboard test early on.
