I had the same problem booting from the i586 classical installer burned to a DVD. The md5sum is fine. Carolyn

(adding colin is case it's from udev)

stage1 doesn't use udev. Looks like something in newer kernel may have break stage1. See Attachment #4412 [details]

(In reply to Thierry Vignaud from comment #7) > (Might also be the latest kmod) Just an FYI. Downloaded and tried latest all.rdz 14199 KB 10/07/2013 08:09:00 PM vmlinuz 3686 KB 10/07/2013 08:09:00 PM Booted them and still has a dead keyboard.
OK this is hardware specific then since I cannot reproduce on a 32it VM. Can you attach a screenshot of this one? Like the attachment #4412 [details] but up to date. => We should see more messages. Last time we had such an issue: - we'd an issue with kmod vs modules.order - we'd to manually load an new module (hid-generic) Thomas, does this ring a bell?

Also, can all the reporters, beside providing an updated screenshot, can report what are their input devices (keyboard, mouse, ...): are they PS/2, USB, ... Aanything else?
@Thomas: you didn't update kernel/list_modules.pm in drakx for kernel-3.11 we may miss some needed modules in the installer. I don't have an older kernel-3.10 in order to compare. Can you update it?
(In reply to Thierry Vignaud from comment #9) > OK this is hardware specific then since I cannot reproduce on a 32it VM. Yup, it worked fine on my 64 bit VB guest, running on the host which would freeze during install. > Can you attach a screenshot of this one? Only if you tell me exactly what to add to my boot stanza title Downloaded_iso kernel (hd0,7)/vmlinuz root=/dev/ram3 ramdisk_size=32000 vga=791 initrd (hd0,7)/all.rdz Or what commands to enter from the boot.iso screen. I downloaded the boot.iso you suggested in the other bug report. Tried nodmraid and it said no module, tried alt0 and keyboard is still dead. > input devices (keyboard, mouse, ...) Broke HP and working Asus systems are both usb keyboard/mouse. Working Lenovo is ps2. All three systems are gpt partitioned. All are running up to date Cauldron.

Please try http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/Mageia/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/install/images/boot-nonfree.iso It contains some new kernel-3.11 USB modules

Hope changes are migrated to vmlinuz and all.rdz. My download_iso script extracts those from the downloaded iso so I can boot straight from hard drive.
Closing then. Why do you extract those from install/images/boot.iso? Those can be found in isolinux/alt0/ ...

(In reply to Thierry Vignaud from comment #15) > Closing then. > Why do you extract those from install/images/boot.iso? > Those can be found in isolinux/alt0/ ... Easier for the script to pull them from whatever downloaded iso than to figure out where to go back and pull from a mirror. :)
