Any1 else who runs into problem when trying to install the saucy x64 mini.iso from a usb stick. The installer hangs. Seems known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc...mments=all

OK after MUCH research I found no working way to sort this. So here is a dirty method...

1. Wipe your system and reinstall with the 13.4 minimal iso. This has a functional USB keyboard driver.
   
2. Once installation is complete execute the following commands
   
3. sudo apt-get update
   
4. sudo apt-get upgrade
   
5. sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
   
6. sudo apt-get install update-manager-core
   
7. sudo do-release-upgrade
   
8. reboot and you will now have 13.10 with working keyboard
   
9. Carry on following the guide on page 1
   

An alternative is go to your recycle shop. Buy yourself a € 1,- ps/2 keyword. Will get you sorted aswell! Yours is less lifehacky .
