Re: usb keyboard install problem

Hello,

I'm just installing 6.0 on a Dell QX280 and ran into some trouble. The USB keyboard is no longer working as soon as the installer hits systinstall with the menu interface. The keyboard worked fine before in the boot loader etc.

In their inifinite wisdom Dell have done away with PS/2 ports, so I'm stuck with USB.

Has anyone seen this before or knows a workaround?

Thanks,


Sven.

If I recall correctly, you have an option at the boot menu of instalation to use USB keyboard. Don't just wait for timeout...
