To answer your questions: - Holding SHIFT while Grub starts, I am able to disable graphics detection and begin an install. - If CAPS LOCK is on, the Penguin screen does come up, but no key does anything - If I press a lot of keys, the system does beep a lot, BUT, not until it is past GRUB completely, as if the queue is locked. The system boots from the CD into GRUB. No keyboard response (unless I hold shift, as described above). The CD Grub defaults to boot off the local hard disk, which it does. In my case this is GRUB from opensuse 10.2. I STILL cannot get the keyboard to respond. The local copy of GRUB from 10.2 then boots the Linux Kernel. At that point is when all the queued beeps come. I did try to verify it was unique to 10.3, but I found that I also had the same problem with the 10.2 DVD now. The installed GRUB (from 10.2) works when it is alone, but not when it is called from a boot CD (10.2 or 10.3 a4). The 10.2 must have worked originally. I did upgrade my BIOS since installing 10.2, which I think is highly relevant. My System is a Dell Dimension E510. I use the x86_64 DVDs to install. When I installed 10.2, I believe I had BIOS revision A05. Now I have A07. Please let me know what other information I can provide. I am holding off on installing 10.3 on this system until I am reasonably sure that I will be able to boot my system. Right now I am worried that if I overwrote the existing grub, I would not be able to boot properly. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
