Subject:   Can't use keyboard after compiling new kernel
Message-ID:  <Pine.BSI.3.91.950608082815.26923A-100000@falcon.ic.net>

I compile new kernels a lot - I like to experament with things. So the 
latest one I compiled was identical to the last one that I used except 
that it used cons25 terminal instead of vt220. I guess I was a little too 
sure of myself and deleted /kernel.old (I thought I would forget to later.)
Now FreeBSD starts to boot, and somewhere after it mounts some partitions 
I loose the cursor, and I can't use the keyboard at all (I was able to 
use it at the "Boot:" prompt.) Can anyone help!? I tried starting the 
installation in fix-it mode but the same thing happens when I boot from 
the hard disk. I'm stuck using OS/2 for the time being. Thank you for any 
help any of you may be able to give.

Rob
