Hi everyone,

I'm unable to install Plan 9 from the installation CD. My computer
boots fine from the CD, but I'm unable to select an installation
option. In fact, my keyboard doesn't seem to work at all! (I have
noticed that this only seems to happen with USB keyboards) What are
my options? (Besides purchasing a PS/2 keyboard.)

TIA,
Ralph

if your bios has a setting that enables USB Legacy (or some such thing),
try enabling that.
