Problem persists confirmed on both 13.10 and 14.04 dailys. So I am not
really getting what the scenario is to get this fix into a stable ISO:
Do I understand correctly that 13.10 won't be respun because of this?
Does that mean that to get a supported Ubuntu server ISO that can be
installed, we will have to wait for Trusty? And if so: when will this be
introduced into the dailys?

Secondly it is also not clear to me if this is restricted to certain keyboards or all? 
Debian testing seems to sugest some usb keyboards work:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=726957#17
But that seems weird to me since CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD_PCI looks to me like a generic parameter.
Please advise. thnks!

Bug description:
  A fresh install of Server 13.10 on old hardware fails when a USB
  keyboard is present. The installation succeeds when a PS/2 keyboard is
  installed.

  The installation appears to hang at the third screen, which is "Select
  Language". The screen does not respond to keyboard or mouse events.

  The issue was experienced independently on HP/Compag  dc5850 with
  Athlon X2 2.3 GHz dual core, 4GB RAM; and DELL Optiplex 755. See
  "Server 13.10 Install Hangs",
  http://askubuntu.com/questions/364945/server-13-10-install-
  hangs/364949.

  The issue was not present on Server 12.04.3 LTS or 13.04.
