There's a Debian Installer FAQ about unresponsive keyboards: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/FAQ#Q:_When_I_run_the_DebianInstaller.2C_my_keyboard_doesn.27t_work.21 Alternatively, when the installation of packages starts (and your keyboard still works), press LeftAlt+F4 to view the log screen and keep an eye out for any errors for acpi-related messages. -- For more information, please reread.
