I got the lifimage from the 2001-11-18 set that's on master. I managed to watch the boot enough times to see what's causing me a problem: it's not seeing the HID keyboard at all and claims that it's not there. I tried unplugging the mouse from the keyboard (just in case), which didn't help. I did manage to get it booted once with the keyboard recognised, but it behaved very badly and finally just stopped working when I was trying to partition the disks. > Another option would be to get you a chroot on paer where you could test > out your fix. That's an idea. I may see what happens on the other 735 that I have (I can always swap the disks). I just found it odd that the kernel didn't recognise it, but the keyboard worked fine when I was messing with the boot options. C
