Probably, an error in /etc/inputrc. So, from single-user mode try remounting / rw and then move inputrc to a different name. > > This is a lamp-style PowerPC iMac, so the keyboard is USB, if it > matters. (Unfortunately, I don't have another keyboard to test.) Alternatively (but less likely, since you say it is ok in single-user mode), a wrong keyboard map - you almost certainly want to use an i386 keymap, so something like us.map or us-acentos.map, not mac-us.map. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
