Comments/Problems:
My Itanium has no ps2. The only way to plug a keyboard is to use USB.
The USB keyboard doesn't work with the netinst cdrom.
So I tested the network pxe installation but the keyboard still not
work.
So I tried to modify the initrd in order to load the usb-uhci kernel
module: I mount -o loop the initrd file, and add these ugly lines on
/sbin/debian-installer-startup:
depmod -a
modprobe usb-uhci
With these 2 lines, the keyboard works.
dmesg, cpuinfo, etc. can be found at:
http://linux.ensimag.fr/~acrequy/bazard/Debian-IA64-usbkeybord-bugreport/
I suggest:
- either detecting correctly the USB keyboard
- either adding a kernel parameter like "loadmodule=3Dusb-uhci" and parse
/proc/cmdline in some init scripts.
Feel free to ask another details.

I've confirmed that this is fixed in current build of the images. It
