Thanks for your reply Felix. Yesterday, I too updated from Raring (13.04) to Saucy (13.10 ) without specifying saucy proposed or raring proposed and the update happed successfully. After the update, upon reboot, the wireless keyboard was detected ok and I could enter the password for the encrypted partion.
On a separate note, attempting to install from the Saucy ISO CD image fails even when "Download updates" is selected. Perhpas this could be because the package had not been released to -updates as detailed above by Stéphane Graber. So installing from Saucy ISO CD image with "Download Updates" selected might work from today. (I had tried installing from ISO image yesterday). So, to install Saucy from an ISO CD Image, I first installed Raring (13.04) from the 13.04 ISO CD image, then download the 13.04 updates (without downloading the Raring updates, I kept getting errors while attempting to upgrade to Saucy), and then after the 13.04 updates were installed, I opted to upgrade to Saucy Salamander (13.10). All was ok from that point on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1238194 Title: keyboard doesn't work to enter password with encrypted partitions ubuntu 13.10 saucy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/initramfs-tools/+bug/1238194/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
