I have resolved this issue. The problem is discussed on the Linux Kernel mailing list. It is a problem with conflicts with USB subsystem.
I am using the Gigabyte GA-7DPXDWP dual AMD motherboard with dual athlon MP 2400+ processors. If you turn off USB keyboard and USB mouse support in the Mtherboard BIOS then PS2 mice and keyboards will be recognized by both the 2.6.15 Linux kernels as well as the new etch installer. Otherwise the 2.6.15 kernel will not recognize the keyboard or mice during bootup. Here is a kernel mailing list thread reference. http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0601.1/1433.html Re: PROBLEM: PS/2 keyboard does not work with 2.6.15 From: Alan Stern read the whole thread.
