Fedora Boot Media Issues

I mentioned in a mail a couple of days ago that when I boot from F9
installation media I get the first screen ("press enter to install
linux") but I can't make any progress because at that point my
keyboard doesn't work.

It worked fine up and including FC6. At F7 it stopped working. But
it's only Fedora boot disks that have this problem. I can still boot
installation media from other distributions without problems (I've
tried Ubuntu and Mepis). And it's not just a problem with disks that I
have burnt myself. I get exactly the same behaviour from Fedora
installation media that I get from magazine covers.

So my question is, what changed in F7 to cause this problem? And why
don't other distributions have this problem? And is there anything I
can do to help to fix the problem before F10 is released?

Cheers,

Dave...
