Hello,

Does anyone know how to make a PS/2 keyboard work when plugged into a system booted without a
keyboard on FreeBSD 5.x? It doesn't seem to work.

For example in 4.x the default GENERIC kernel line is:
device          atkbd0  at atkbdc? irq 1 flags 0x1

If you leave that line alone, the ps/2 keyboard will not work if a system booted without one
plugged in. But if you remove the "flags 0x1" it will work fine.

Does anyone know how to make the PS/2 work properly in 5.x?

Thank you,

Holt G.
