I think it is probably something funny about the AST keyboard (as you
said).  I'm in the process of building a 386 machine -- while in the 
process, I have the 386 mb sitting in my AST 286 case -- and am using
the 286 keyboard.  The keyboard fails the POST, so I had to disable
that test in the bios.

it seems to work ok other than that though.
