isolinux initial keyboard dead (Asus P5GD2 Board, suse-10.0 CDs/DVDs)
Asus P5GD2-Premium Board Pentium 640 CPU, 2x512 MB Ram PS/2 Keyboard Cherry RS 6000 M ATi X600 Graphics Powercolor SATA Maxtor 250 GB disk I maintain some systems with the above configuration. They boot flawlessly with Knoppix, suse-9.2 and Windows XP-CDs. They work flawlessly with Knoppix, suse-9.2 and Windows XP. But it is NOT possible to boot them with (suse-9.3 or) Suse-10 installation or live CDs or DVDs, neither x64 nor i32 versions. I upgraded mb bios and DVD-Drive-Firmware, nothing helps. I changed BIOS PnP/OS, ACPI-2 and APIC Options, nothing helps. I see this: I insert the optical medium, boot, the Bonjour-Screen appears. Then when the grub boot menu appears, the keyboard is absolutely dead. So it is not possible to select an boot option. Therefore, after the time out, grub boots into the "boot from harddisk"-Menu-item and dies. I checked the MD5-Sum of the optical disks and could use them to install other computer with other mainboards. mit freundlichen Grüßen Bernd Melchers --

I'm using a P5GD2-Premium on the computer I'm writing this email, and everything is working well, apart from the wireless card. It was installed from SuSE 9.3 DVD. I've also tryed the 10.0 Live DVD and it works. Do you want any specific details about any configuration? -- Rui Santos http://www.ruisantos.com/ They that would give up essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither one of them.

Yes, please tell me the bios version of your board. - do you have default settings in your bios? - what DVD drive do you have? mit freundlichen Grüßen Bernd Melchers

I have exactly the same problem, but i have another configuration. Asrock 939-dual-SATA II, Athlon XP 3200+. I tried both a USB keyboard as well as a PS/2 keyboard. I posted this problem a week ago, but unfortunately until now there is no fix. -- Jeroen

I finally found a fix for my problem, while booting keep the ALT-key pressed. This at least fixed the problem for me. -- Jeroen

Press the ALT key, while booting. This works for me and other people. mit freundlichen Grüßen Bernd Melchers -- Archiv- und Backup-Service | fab-service@zedat.fu-berlin.de Freie Universität Berlin | Tel. (030) 838-55905
