Hi,

I have a dell poweredge server with a Remote Access Card installed. I 
successfully installed FreeBSD 4.10 on this system and it works great.
Unfortunately the RAC card does not accept input from a remote keyboard
when there is not a local keyboard installed. I beleive this is because
the kernel does not detect the keyboard and disables it and then switches
the console to the serial device. My question is how do I force the 
keyboard to always be enabled? I am not positive where I would do this
and what the flag would be. Perhaps atkdb=0x01 ???

Thank You very much

JJ
