It turns out that the BIOS has a setting "USB Emulation", which if turned on, lets a USB keyboard/mouse behave like the PS2 version. With this option turned on, the USB keyboard worked throughout the install process. With this option turned off, the USB keyboard was not visible to the first net-install screen, although apparently some native USB drivers came into play later. So here's one "problem" that has evaporated. On to the next one. David
