Fail to choose keyboard type when installing Precise on Macbook Air 4,1

[Li Li]

When installing Precise on MBA 4,1, the installer application would enter a wrong state if I select keyboard type.

Expected behavior:
Choose a country name on the left side, the right side should display the corresponding keyboard option list.

Current behavior:
Choose a country name on the left side for several times, the right side stops updating the keyboard list. Sometimes the cursor even keep showing busy state and the installer stops there - clicking "back" or "continue" becomes useless. Have to restart the whole installing process.

perhaps someone would care to see if they can reproduce this problem

I repeated it two times to confirm it (The third time I just used default
keyboard layout to bypass this). Need somebody else to reproduce on another
machine.
