ok, got it booted into sysinst.  everything i type is in CAPS.  this is
making things a bit hard for me. ;)

is this a known bug?  something silly i can do to fix it?  an no, Caps Lock is
not on.  it doesn't seem to do anything at all actually.

this is the ADB keyboard and onboard video i'm using to install this.
