List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 26 Mar 2012 15:37:14 -0000 Thanks for responding but my FreeBSD server has but a single hard drive (SATA) connected to a controller configured (via BIOS) in Compatible (not RAID) mode. It's hard for me to imagine that this is a hardware issue. The keyboard works until a very specific point in the FreeBSD boot sequence, at which point it ceases working. Then, at a very specific subsequent point in the boot sequence, it resumes working. Thereafter, it does not, again, fail to work. It's been going on -- invariably -- since I installed the O/S two months ago. Moreover; I have an identical platform on which I'm running Ubuntu (11.10) Linux with no inability to interact with its loader. Nonetheless; I am providing my 'HP Survey' as requested. http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/file/n5595594/survey.html survey.html -- View this message in context: http://freebsd.1045724.n5.nabble.com/Keyboard-Curiosity-tp5586073p5595594.html Sent from the freebsd-proliant mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
