There doesn't seem to be any problem with any of these devices working in BIOS and I do not have a Windows installation available to test and see if it works. I'm rather baffled at what could be killing/preventing USB (and my on-board network card) from working in Linux. The motherboard supports USB 3.0 but all the devices I have plugged into normal USB 2.0 ports. I tried passing noapic to the kernel boot string and it had no effect on this problem. And doing an lsmod I do not see any usb modules loaded ( usb_ehci for example). Doing an lspci shows me all the hardware I'd expect. If I do an lsusb I can see all the USB host controllers but none of the devices. What I see in the dmesg/syslog is a few lines about " failed to load microcode amd_ucode/microcode_amd_fam15h.bin" and I can see USB devices failing to initialize.
Even when I'm in the pre-installation menus on the Live Ubuntu DVD the keyboard works fine.Īs soon as Linux is booted (either Live DVD or from the SSD) I lose all USB functionality and can only navigate the OS using a PS/2 keyboard. It should be noted that my USB keyboard (and mouse) work fine while in the American Megatrends UEFI/BIOS. I tried installing Arch, Debian stable, Debian sid, and Ubuntu 12.10 from a USB thumb drive but while the BIOS saw the USB drive and started to boot from it, as soon as the OS attempted to enumerate the USB devices I lost all USB functionality (including the boot device).Įventually I burned a DVD and installed Ubuntu 12.10 onto the SSD.
MSI DVD SETUP NOT WORKING 970A INSTALL
Given that, I tried to install various versions of Linux on the SSD and was met with failure almost every time.
For background I have just built a new machine with modern hardware including:
