Trackpad firmware update

[Sally]

i attempted to update my  4 hour old Pinebook Pro. Now I can't sign into Pinebook Pro using rock, rock. The letters typed not correct.


What can I do? Do I have to reinstall the OS or is my new Pinebook Pro bricked. Thank you for any assistance.

Kinda flustered ...

 I didn't say what I was attempting to update, the keyboard firmware. I'm not sure what happened. Can I reinstall Debian?  Thank you for any assistance you can give me. 

My regards, 

Sally

I ran into a similar problem when running the instructions that update the trackpad firmware for ansi.  After the Step 1 reboot, I could not connect to the laptop via ssh since the wifi hadn't reconnected.  I suspected that the laptop wifi didn't connect because I didn't login.  However, I couldn't login because the keyboard mapping was mixed up.  

I solved the problem via trial and error by determining which keys were mapped to r, o, c, k, and Enter.  This allowed me to login which started the wifi. I then logged into my router to determine the ip address of the laptop.  The name of the connection listed by the router is Debian-Desktop.  Below are the key mappings I used to login:
r = y
o = .
c = h
k = ' 
\ = Enter
Enter = backspace

Note: use \ to get to the Password field from the ID field.

Hope this helps your problem!

Thank you so much for your help. Yes, I mapped out my now wacky keyboard and dead trackpad. But I don't know how what to after that. Would it be wise to reinstall Debian. I can't believe this has happened. I'm willing to learn how to solve the issues. Thank you again.

R = Y
O = .
C = H
K= "
