First class.

I had a bad root.img floppy first time around so left the "boot
root after 30 seconds" message running while I burnt another one, on
another box. Inserted the new root floppy and it booted without problem.

I was then able to use the usb keyboard and ultimately exit the install
using the keyboard without any problems.

Thanks for the consideration.
