Oh, I forgot to report: That NOW that both keyboard AND mouse are 
plugged into a hub which is then plugged into Back Inner USB socket, 
it now boots up correctly, all working.

But - it DOESN'T boot-up correctly if that hub is instead plugged into 
Back Outer USB socket.

[I realise that this USB topography must be a temporary stop-gap 
solution, because I understand SHIFT-BOOT won't work properly with the 
keyboard thro' a hub.]

See USB topography posting about the missing physical port number-4 as 
reported in USBinfo [latest version 0.54]

That fact may have some pointers on this enigma.
