I have been working with ast to test his latest changes to the kernel
to support the PS/2.

Test results:

1) I do not think your patch (ps=1) is needed:

    The Model 30-286 should not have ps=1 (it is an AT in PS/2 clothes). 
    The Model 50&60 are PS/2 and ps is correctly set.

2) Specific results:

	                       Patched		Unpatched
			       (ps=1)

	Model 30-286		no kb		works
	Model 50		works		works
	Model 60		works		works
	Model 70		crash		crash
	Model 80		crash		crash


	With the patched version, the Model 30-286 does not recieve
	keyboard input.  The menu comes, but any input is ignored.

	On the Model 70 and Model 80, both version crash after
	the "=" is entered, but before the screen is cleared

	"Works" means all of the V1.3 test programs ran.

PS	What is Steve Ackerman's mail address?
