I've got a new system with a Gigabyte GA-Z87N-WIFI board. I can get into the BIOS and use the keyboard to move around and toggle various options, but when I boot from the Arch install DVD (downloaded 2 days ago), there's no keyboard. The keyboard works in the boot menu, it just disappears after. I've tried booting in both UEFI and legacy mode, but no luck either way: different boot menus, same problem once the disk boots.
EDIT: This may be interesting. I went into hardware info from the install disk boot menu, and under PCI Devices, I can see three USB controllers. The "product" line reads:
8 Series/C220 Series Chipset Family EHCI
Vendor is Intel Corporation. Module is unknown. Maybe this is the issue?
PCI and PCI express controllers also list module as unknown, but I have no expansion cards whatsoever and all the other devices seem to have kernel modules associated.

This seems to be an issue with the 3.10 kernel, e.g. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/35991
I have a unifying receiver. Also, I tried booting the Gentoo minimal install disk (from USB) and had no problem.
So how do I get an install disk with a different kernel? Newer or older, doesn't much matter, I'll be compiling my own kernel once I'm up and running anyway.
Otherwise, back to Gentoo? Or just a different keyboard until I can get a kernel compiled? This is a pretty common set of keyboards (and mice)... Why hasn't this been fixed?
