Just a warning...I just tried the F9 preview DVD (x86_64) and grub
doesn't respond to a USB keyboard.  You can't select a different boot
option other than the default and (obviously) can't edit the boot
parameters.

I haven't played with BIOS settings, but the USB keyboard works fine
with F8's x86_64 DVD.

Just thought you should know.
