Sorry to change the subject but I am having troubles posting to PLUG.  I
keep getting a bad address.

CentOS on a USB Keyboard Box - Next Install-Fest

A friend has an HP (I think HP) box, with a USB keyboard, which came with
some flavour of Windows. It got a virus and he wiped the drive only to find
that in order to reload the OS, he needs the USB keyboard which is not
available to install the OS until the OS is installed.

I have been touting Linux for many years and he is interested. When is the
next Install-fest? Can CentOS be installed given the USB keyboard? If so,
what all should he bring?

TIA

George
