Just installed test 3 and you still lose the cursor on the firstboot screen. The workaround is to change to terminal 1 and then back to terminal 7 and the mouse works again.
This was a clean install of test 3 on an IBM T30 thinkpad.
I'll update the bug in bugzilla.
This is definitely a showstopper for new users as they will have no idea to switch terminals.

On the other hand, I did NOT see the problem with test 3 (I did see it on test 2).
This was a fresh install of test 3 as a vmware guest.

I DID see it on fresh install of test 3. I probably fumbled the change of terminal, but had to reboot twice to get a cursor.

I did not have that problem on a Toshiba Satellite S103 machine.... the install went without a hitch. There were a couple of "minor" problems (incorrect text in the "show details" while booting up... but that was it.
I also did a clean install, removing/formatting all Linux partitions.

Same problem with Fedora Core 1 on a Thinkpad T20.
