I downloaded BeOS5 Dev 1 1 and made a cue sheet using the instructions on this forum all seems ok
After booting im on a grey screen with an ACCEPT screen in front of me The Keyboard and Mouse do not responde
I though it had crashed but I was wrong leaving it for some time made the screen saver come on I also tryed booting with all the safe options I could find and it still didnt work
Any ideas ?

No one else had a problem with this ? (or a solution ?)
First I though it was the AMD kernel problem but BeOS Dev Edition it comes with AMD and Intel compatable kernels

See betips dot net and search for keyboard and mouse. There are some tips about typmatic rate and older bios's and odd keyboards. Try CD in another computer just to check if it is OK maybe. See if ctrl-alt-del works or numlock works.

Dunno, might look at bebits and see if the newer dev ed might help or try the beos max version. Most people get them to work with some sucess. The other idea might be try the typmatic rate or try another keyboard. It should work.
