is it just me or does grub not support USB keyboards?
should Gentoo switch to LILO (assuming LILO does support USB keyboards)?

Also, the user can choose a different boot loader. I found Grub to be very easy. Yes, I know it isn't perfect. _________________ Quis separabit? Quo animo? |

It doesn't seem to work for me (shuttle sn41G2, nforce2 motherboard). All I can see in the bios is an option for USB 1.1/2.0 support, but that's already enabled... |
