The USB AUTO / Legacy options would suggest to me[1] they are about the USB itself, i.e. support for older USB standards (1.1 and/or 2.0), which might explain why your keyboard stops working. As David mentioned, some USB ports might not support booting at all, you should try all available USB ports. [1] Hard to tell without looking at the menus, but the system's / motherboard's user manual should explain what each option actually does. Admittedly the explanation is often incomplete and/or badly worded. Kind regards, Andrei -- http://wiki.debian.org/FAQsFromDebianUser
