Description
There is no response to my keyboard at the boot prompt for the 8.0 RC DVD, which eventually times out and launches the installer. Keyboard is a logitech elite keyboard plugged into usb, which is detected by my bios.

Closing to lack of feedback. Sounds like FreeBSD USB issue with specific keyboard / bios though.
Note: See

Once the installer launches does the keyboard work at that point? Also, in your BIOS do you have an option to enable "USB Keyboard" or "Legacy USB Keyboard" support? I know on a few of my systems I have to enable that before I can use a USB keyboard at the boot prompt.
