Okay since you manually made the image what file did you make the image with? Also what USB are you using Micro SD, SD, USB etc.

I used the instructions here; https://github.com/ading2210/shimboot under build instructions; sudo ./build_complete.sh <board_name>, puff is my board_name. I tested with 2 different USB sticks, same results.

@batman162 Try using your chromebook's internal keyboard, not an external usb keyboard.
I think it hasn't loaded drivers for any usb keyboards yet which is probably why it isn't working.

This is a chromebox, no built in keyboard. It's an HP Chromebox G3

What keyboard are you currently using?

[batman162]

Using usb wired keyboard. NumLock turns on and off the numlock light.

tried with two basic usb wired keyboard. same behaviour.

[batman162]

update: when at the boot loader menu, if I press the power button, it appears to input "?", I see "?" for every power button presses. And I tried a 3rd, older usb keyboard. same behavior.

[FunnyCorgi]

Can you provide model names and numbers for these keyboards?

@batman162 Does the capslock light work? or is that also just not working?
Usb support may have been added with a firmware update to ChromeOS
