Hi Andi, No, mine isn't usb-based. My asus motherboard includes a ASMB7 "management module" which activates an extra ethernet port for system management. You can connect to the port with a web browser and monitor temps and fan-speeds, and you can also remotely power the system on and off (the port remains active even if the system is off). There is also some sort of java-based remote KVM interface, which I'm not using. It seems that is what the virtual cdrom and floppy devices are for. My next step would have been to physically remove the plug-in management module from the board, but the workaround I came up with was easier.
My guess is that its going to be hard to track down the cause of this bug, since it seems to be specific to very special circumstances. -Jeff > From: Andreas Stempfhuber <reportbug2...@afulinux.de> > To: Jeff Norden <jnor...@math.tntech.edu> > Subject: Re: Bug#701099: debian-cd: installer fails with two CD/DVD drives > Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2014 20:21:04 +0100 > Hi Jeff, > > in my case the wrongly selected DVD drive was provided via USB.
