Can I ask you, what type of Supermicro server you have or what IPMI/KVM 
module?

We have 6016TT-TF with onboard IPMI, and "virtual USB keyboard" doesn't 
work only on 7.2 installation CD/ISO, but if 7.2-RELEASE is installed on 
the HDD with GENERIC kernel, remote console / keyboard works fine.
8.0 CD / ISO works fine. So in our case, the problem is only with 7.2 
kernel used for installer, not with GENERIC kernel of running system.
Can you confirm this behavior?
