Dear Maintainer,

Please ignore the system information, this is an attempt to install jessie beta
2 from netinst.

I used 'expert mode' to install for various reasons, and when presented with
the choice between generic and targeted initrd images, I chose targeted, since
I was fairly comfortable that the hardware in this system will not change til
EOL.

I also set up an encrypted / and a cleartext /boot.

Upon booting, I am asked: "Please unlock disk sdg5_crypt:"

However, my USB keyboard is unusable despite working fine during most of the
rest of the boot process.

There is an excellent description of the problem at [1].  It appears that more
USB / USBHID modules should be included in the 'targeted' initrd - having USB
keyboard support broken on the system for which the initrd was targeted is not
good, as you can't unlock your system without a PS/2 keyboard.
