An old Mac Mini, or as the Leopard a MacMini1,1 @ 1.66GHz (x 2), 2048 MB RAM, while booting it doesn’t respond to any of the startup sequences only when I’m using the new Aluminum Apple Keyboard. When I’m using an old Apple Pro Keyboard, everything works fine.

And here’s the kicker: while the Mini starts up, I get into the “select startup disk mode” using the old keyboard—I’m able to navigate between the choices with the old keyboard. If I switch the the new keyboard, nothing works.

For some obscure to me reason, MacMini1,1 doesn’t recognize the Aluminum Apple Keyboard while it’s starting up.

Apple has been notified of the bug and from what I can tell, they’re already aware of the bug. The details of the Mac Mini are (Model Identifier: Macmini1,1; Boot ROM Version: MM11.0055.B08; SMC Version: 1.3f4).
