I recently had a hard drive failure which resulted in my system having a corrupted /var. I removed /var and recreated it from backups, however now i seem to have a unique problem: when I log into the console the backspace and ESC keys do not function correctly. Both keys just result in advancing the cursor. Strangely, if I boot into the rescue.target, the keys work correctly.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried rebuilding the ramdisk? It usually helps in these cases. --Oliver Temlin
