I have tried to get 1.5.3 working on a PS/2 model 30.  I did have 1.3c (1.4)
working on those machines.  I am able to get it to a login prompt but
once minix is started, the keyboard appears to ignored.  In looking at
menu.c, I noticed that the commands "=", "u", and "d" appear to do
the same thing.

Here are my questions:

  Is 1.5.3 able to figure out what keyboard is in use?

  If not, how should the "command" (=,u,d) cause the proper things to
  happen?

  Or does 1.5.3 not have support for the keyboards of the PS/2?

Does any one know the answers?
