The following reply was made to PR kern/120090; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Hannes Mehnert <hannes@mehnert.org> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, ota@j.email.ne.jp Cc: Subject: Re: kern/120090: [geli] geli boot password input fails when using usb keyboard Date: Sun, 14 Dec 2008 01:32:41 +0000 I have the same problem, but it is even more curious: Using a FreeBSD/amd64 system, sometimes the USB keyboard is probed and detected before the geli passphrase prompt, so I can enter the passphrase (~ 1/3 of all boots). Using a FreeBSD/x86 system, sometimes the USB keyboard is probed before geli passphrase prompt, but it is never enabled, so I can't enter the passphrase (and thus not boot the 32bit system). Both kernels are FreeBSD-7.1 PRERELEASE kernels. I also tried to call kthread_suspend_check(curproc) in g_eli.c multiple times, just before the keyboard is requested for the passphrase; but this didn't help. Also, I tried to remove the #if 0 from ukbd_configure (dev/usb/ukbd.c), but this didn't help either.
