Then it still didn't work in the loader, and wouldn't work for the
BIOS either (so I had to plugin a PS/2 keyboard to turn it back on).
I don't think I let it boot long enough to see if the keyboard worked
in sysinstall in that case; I presume it would.  And the system's in
production now, so I can't really fiddle with it anymore.

It's got a Biostar (blech!) Socket A motherboard.
