Hello all
Sorry for my poor english.
I try to revive my Cubieboard, by installing Debian on it.
The cubie is working, I managed to boot with an old distro version and an old kernel.
Now I have fetched the files from the Debian servers, and followed the readme file for creation:
zcat firmware.Cubieboard.img.gz partition.img.gz> complete_image.img
dd if=./complete_image.img of=/dev/mmcblk0
The cubie also starts with this image until the prompt for the choice of language (C or English). At this time, I cannot use the keyboard, it is inoperative.
However, it works, I can take control of the first seconds of the boot:

Did I miss a step or forgot to install a file somewhere?
The language selection screen after booting looks like this:

I admit that I am a little lost.
Could you please help me?
Thank you.
Rémi.
