Still nothing.....

If you connect a terminal to the console port does it work ?
Also you can reset the secure web console, to the factory defaults, by removing the power, holding down the led/button on the front, applying power and then releasing the led/button.

I had this happen to me on a K250 recently, the conclusion was the console port on the Core I/O board was defective. It was as if I had a defective keyboard.. no command would work either in console or maint mode..
I know this is no help, but it was a hardware problem..

I had a similiar problem when I was installing my server. Try changing the keyboard and try to re-install. It worked for me.

Hi BHegarty,

Why don't you try this???
I can remember a situation like this I passed with a remote console connected to a k380 server: impossible to write a word but I was able to telnet from several systems on the network. I checked all the console configuration & nothing was wrong. The solution was certain process running on my system was locking the console ( NOT a HW problem ). I can't remember its name but it was something like *lock* or *lck*.
I hope this helps you.
