[arch-general] No usb keyboard in early userspace

2014-05-15 Thread Javier Vasquez
Hi, With recent linux "3.14.4-1" I can no longer use the keyboard in early userspace, like providing the password for encrypted disk. I do have, and has had the keyboard hook on mkinitcpio.conf. I didn't have problems with any of the 3.13.* linux images, this is new after installation of 3.14.4.

I dual boot Arch and w8 in EFI mode with rEFInd. Both Os are on the same ssd, with a ESP partition. Now I am looking to allow Arch users to run a virtualized version of the w8 already installed. The idea is to keep the dual boot option and allow the use of the installed w8 from Arch.I want to run
