Description:

Tried archlinux-2014.11.01-dual.iso, archlinux-2015.04.01-dual.iso and antergos-2014.08.07-x86_64.iso, with none of these I can type stuff into the prompt. Antergos does not launch a GUI (unrelated to this bug), that's why I get a prompt there too.

See video.

I am not facing this bug on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and some Kubuntu-plasma iso I had lying around (Sorry, can't be more precise)

I am not able to get any logs or execute any commands as I can't enter anything.

I can type stuff in as expected if I choose to use a Generation 1-VM.


Steps to reproduce:

Create a new Generation 2-VM with Hyper-V
Boot from the archlinux iso
Root prompt shows up but no keystrokes get detected
This task depends upon

Nothing from releng side, looks like more a missing module from kernel stuff.

I tried typing with my Cherry MX-Board 3.0, tried to use the "type clipboard contents" function and tried the Windows On-Screen Keyboard.

None of these printed out any characters.

I do not know anything about kernel modules, sorry. I have not modified any of the iso's.
