Keyboard not working on NixOS installer (FW13, AMD Ryzen AI 300 Series)

Which Linux distro are you using?
NixOS

Which release version?
24.11, tried both the Plasma and Gnome graphical ISOs

Which kernel are you using?
unsure, default of 24.11 shipped with the installer

Which BIOS version are you using?
Unsure, whatever came by default on the FW13, AMD Ryzen AI 370

Which Framework Laptop 13 model are you using?
FW13, AMD Ryzen AI 370

My trackpad is working, but for some reason the keyboard is not working in the installer

As a workaround, try using a USB keyboard for the installer. Then after you get into the OS you can start researching the missing drivers.

External keyboard works! Which NixOS package has the appropriate drivers?

There won’t be a package, it will be a kernel version. You might try the latest kernel. Add this to the body of configuration.nix

# Use newer kernel
   boot.kernelPackages = pkgs.linuxPackages_latest;
