Hi Josh, I don't know what to tell you then, over all these years I have not seen such behavior. Possibly try a different HP t5700 thinclient if you can ?

Do you think adding a "rootdelay" might help? If so, is it possible to add something to the KCMD line in the .run.conf file in an already-built environment? > > > > > > > > > From: Michael Keuter <li...@mk...> > > > Sent: Thursday, January 11, 2018 5:37 AM > > > To: AstLinux Developers Mailing List > > > Subject: Re: [Astlinux-devel] Boot Occasionally Freezing While Probing PS/2 Ports > > > > > > > > > > Am 11.01.2018 um 04:25 schrieb Josh Alberts <jm...@ho...>: > > > > > > > > Hello again, > > > > > > > > I made a custom build for an HP t5700 thinclient with a Transmeta Crusoe processor. I got that figured out (thanks again, Michael!) but occasionally the machine gets hung up on booting, and this is the last thing on the screen: > > > > > > > > i8042: PNP: No PS/2 controller found.

I commented out all of the lines under "Hardware I/O ports" in the following files that seemed relevant for my geni586 build: > > > > > > > > project/runnix-iso/geni586/linux.config > > > > project/runnix/geni586/linux.config > > > > project/astlinux/geni586/linux-smp.config > > > > > > > > Then, I went ahead and rm -rf'd my output folder and ran scripts/build geni586. Is this the proper method to remove PS/2 support? Moreover, should this approach solve my problem? Since it's an intermittent issue, it would be great to get some outside input rather than convincing myself after a few successful reboots that I've solved the problem.
