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

Others have USB keyboards and mice with no problems, so I'd have to say no. Also, the user can choose a different boot loader. I found Grub to be very easy. Yes, I know it isn't perfect.

| 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... |
