It looks as though you have two choices. Either:
. Boot with the installation flash drive, where the kbd/mouse work,
and use it as your rescue system to effect the repair as outlined
in the reference above.
Or:
. Boot with the installation flash drive and repeat the installation.
Before it terminates, effect the repair as outlined above, but with
one important change:
Repair the file /target/lib/udev/rules.d/97-bluetooth-hid2hci.rules
rather than the file /lib/udev/rules.d/97-bluetooth-hid2hci.rules
because /target is where your new installation is being built.
"Before it terminates"—when is a good time? With expert non-graphical
installation, there are several opportunities:
- Install the GRUB boot loader on a hard disk
- Finish the installation (clock setting)
- Finish the installation (remove installation media)
There may be fewer occasions when using non-expert/other methods.
At the chosen opportune time, type Alt-F2 and press Return to get a shell.
Effect the repair.
Type Alt-F1 (or Alt-←) to return to the installation screen.
Cheers,
David.
