 Would you tell us the exact error messages? With the -v option, I
 expect something like:
 
 sc0: the current keyboard command byte: bb.
 ...
 kbdio: RESET_KBD return code: xx.
 kbdio: RESET_KBD status: yy.
 sc0: failed to reset the keyboard.
 
 You may see the above "kbdio:..." lines repeated several times as the
 driver retries. (There may be additional messages for other keyboard
 I/O errors.)
 
 Also, have you booted the install floppy without entering UserConfig
 (by typing Q or ENTER when prompted to start configuration menu)? What
 was the outcome?

 I don't think the flag bit 0x10 will help; it is primarily for some
 IBM ThinkPad models. So long as you did not need it before, you don't
 need it now too.
