** Also affects: ubuntu-cdimage
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Description changed:

  I'm reviving this report since the issue is still present in 14.04 and
  15.10 syslinux, which is used in the various flavour hybrid ISOs, via
  mbr/isohdpfx.{S,bin}
  
  The same system I originally reported in comment #30 is still affected.
  
  The patch that was applied to upstream syslinux MBRs in 2009 as a result
  of this (holding down Ctrl key to force boot device 0x80) is no longer
  present, although the MBR source does contain the definition for reading
  the keyboard state:
  
  BIOS_kbdflags = 0x417
