Hi

What exactly is wrong when pressing the <tab>-key?
Do you get error messages?
Did you use the <tab>-key before?
On what platform are you?
What keyboard are you using?
Can you still switch to console F2?

Please note that problems with boot-floppies (= woody install system) won't
be fixed anymore, because "sarge" is getting stable soon.

BTW:
Asking first on debian-user@lists.debian.org for help is the "normal" route
to go ;-)

Bye
Christian
