I have a Compaq F500

 

I have heard of successful installations but cant do it myself.

 

No matter the distro, I cant use my mouse and keyboard. I found a post about adding a kext file to the extensions. I downloaded the mentioned ket file from that member. I cant add it to the iso file though.

 

What distro do I need?

What options within that distro do I choose?

 

Thanks for any help.

 

Ive tried,

iPC in VERBOSE mode (gets a PS2 resend error repeating)

iPC regular install (kernel Panic)

LEO4ALL ( no mouse or keyboard )

Kalaway (no mouse or keyboard)
