From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Description of problem: I have computer with no CD ROM or internal floppy drive. I copied ISO's on the hardrive and boot from external USB floppy from TDK. I am using PS/2 keyboard and mouse both from Microsoft When after first state of the install my computer is rebooted and the USB floppy drive is still plugged in my mouse and keyobard stop working. This problem doesn't happen if I unplug the USB floppy during reboot. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. See summary Additional info:
I have a hard time seeing how this isn't some weird BIOS bug, but it could be something not resetting state properly.
I can actually reproduce it also in a different way. If I plugin USB key (Lexar media) and reboot computer and the key is plugged in, then the keyboard and mouse don't work. If the key is not plugged in during boot and I plug it in later, the keyboard and mouse works.
