I was installing 0.9.3. Serial console installation. For some reason, my
keyboard is seen as sending double carriage returns in palinux. This is,
of course, a major problem during the config process. I got as far as
the second stage "you have a minimal system", had
downloaded/apt-get/CD'ed EVERYTHING since I can't select from the menu's
with the keyboard. During the dpkg configure all this stuff phase, I got
stuck. tab wouldn't advance me to the next control item and I would up
with a "help" screen that would only close with an "enter" which doubles
and reopens the same help screen. Aargh!
So I hit the power switch after about an hour of trying everything I can
find.
Big problems. No console. No keyboard. The boot process hangs and has
every status light on but the heartbeat. The big monitor has a video
signal, but no text. The serial console monitor is on, blinking curser.
It responds keyboard (echos to screen).
Any suggestions?
