Title:
  USB keyboards do not work to enter password after upgradeing to Ubuntu
  13.10 from 13.04

Status in “initramfs-tools” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  After upgrading to 13.10 from 13.04, there is no keyboard (either
  wireless or wired) when connected to a USB on my PC. I am unable to
  enter my disk unlock password upon boot, rendering the system
  unbootable. This was verified with a wireless keyboard with a USB
  dongle and a wired keyboard that connected to the computer via USB.

  As a workaround, before the screen popped up for the encryption, I
  chose a different kernel version (last kernel installed before
  upgrade) and booted this method. This is not a permanent solution.
