Re: keyboard works in BIOS & GRUB but not during boot

Sounds like you are typing in the wrong passphrase/password. It is typed
in "blind" - ie, nothing appears on the screen. And don't forget that
the passphrase is case sensitive.

OK... i'm used to seeing dots when i type. nevertheless, i tried typing
the passphrase and pushing 'enter' but the machine doesn't respond... i
can't use ctrl-alt-del either, and numlock doesn't toggle the LED on the
keyboard
