I was reasonably sure I used my USB keyboard when I installed 7.0-beta2,
but just to make sure I tried it and I can confirm that the installer
recognises it. I tested it at the black and white (Beasty?) menu by
pressing space and then 1, and I could select a keyboard layout in the
sysinstall menu too. I carried on little further without problems.

Can you find another keyboard to try?
