Alexander, Just a FYI, this is an isolinux problem. I haven't investigated it very far, but when booting isolinux on an Intel Macintosh you have about a 1 in 10 chance of getting the keyboard to work at the prompt. Usually if you plug in another USB keyboard it's fine. From all appearances, it's a race condition somewhere. On the LFS LiveCD, this isn't a major problem because we have the timeout. On a certain Debian CDs, however, there is no timeout at the prompt and you must plug in an external keyboard. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/livecd FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
