Re: 2.6.10 install - PS2 Keyboard not recognized

[Joe Albanese <albanese@ameritech.net>]

I can't get to dmesg when I boot to the DVD.  Once I enter expert26 or 
linux26 I lose control of the keyboard.  I could boot to 2.4 and run 
dmesg, but I don't know of a way to get the dmesg from the install.
