106 multisession CD won't recognize keyboard

#1 Post by Justme »

I downloaded the puppy 1.6 multisession iso image. Burned it with Nero on a cd and tried to boot from the cd. The problem is, that the booting process stops at the point where i am asked to press y and then enter for an upgrade, or just to press enter for a first install. It seemed like my keybord doesn't work, but I tried it on my laptop and it stops on the same point.

Any suggestions?

I realy need help, because my hard disk is broken and I have to wait 3 weeks for spare one :(

Did you verify the download with rd5sum and what sort of system do you have.

No, I didn't. Can you tell me more about it? I tried to find it with google but i couldn't find it.


I have a Dell Dimension 4550 (intl. p. 4 2600, 1gb ram, ...) and it has a wireless keyboard (logitech).

The otherone is a HP pavillion ze 4200. (AMD Athlon 1670, 768mb ram and no hard drive)

The boot up fails on both computers at the same time. (press y and then enter to upgrade or just press enter for a first install)

Thank you for your answer :)

I have the same problem. I checked the md5 and it was fine.

I'm on a Dell gx270, 2.8ghz, 512m
