>Description:
I encountered two difficulties while attempting to install 6.0 RC1.
1. unable to create swap device, therefore unable to install
2. usb keyboard non-responsive durring sysconfig
>How-To-Repeat:
Attempt re-installation
>Fix:
The second and extreamly less important could be fixed by loading the usb modules as part of the CD boot, and a simple configuration, which I have already submitted ... but this can be worked around by dragging out my ps/2 keyboard for the installation.
