I think I found a pattern, that the "mouse freeze" happens more often when the alt key is used to select the startup the volume instead of letting it auto select on boot...

In reference to DieHard’s comments regarding info on mouse freezes with dual-boot Mac minis...
and the alt/option-key boot… I wonder if kgllewellyn’s eMac approach (or a suitably adjusted variant)
with a Mac Mini - might be relevant / useful?
