Bug Description
I have a Sun Blade 100 that is currently running 6.06 fine. With 6.10 I was never able to get Linux to actually start to even perform and install. With Feisty I now can get to the screen where I can select the language to start the install, but at that point I have no keyboard control at all. I do have keyboard control when the system starts as I can press enter or type at the boot: prompt, but between that time and the time the selection for English appears I lose keyboard control. I've tried a couple of different USB keyboards, but so far nothing appears to work.
I also just wanted to say thank you for continuing to have a Sparc port. This machine is an older machine, but it makes for a fun machine to work with and being able to run all of the latest versions of all of the Linux packages is very nice! Thank you for continuing to support these machines.
