I want to thank everyone who helped with this problem.  My ThinkPad is now
off life support and running FreeBSD on its own.  My biggest problem turned out
to be replacing the kernel in the bin.tgz with the kernel that I had built.
It's a simple tar operation, but I had to find about 40 meg of free disk space
to work with the file!  No mean task when you are running three operating
systems (FreeBSD, OS/2 and DOS) on a 486 with around 600 meg of space.

Now, what I would like to know is: are scancode 2 keyboards going to be
supported in 2.1, or will I have to go through this all again when I upgrade?

amazed to be running a great UNIX system on a little laptop with 4 meg of RAM!
