Just received my board and it looks great! The first time i tried to boot up at the login my keyboard input had extra caricatures when i tried to input the user name root
so it would not login. i entered grub boot loader and when I exited that the login was fine with no extra trash in the user name field. Now on to see if Slackware 14.1
will work.

Hi Sir,
What kind of " extra caricatures" you mean? Can you show here?

Sometimes we faced such situation when input username after bootup:



Just press Windows + F2 key(Or CTRL+ALT+F2), then you can input the right letter.
