Hardware: IBM ThinkPad 701
FreeBSD: 3.0
Was working fine with 3.0

I upgraded to 3.2-Stable
Examined 'GENERIC' vs 'MYKERNEL' - changed as appropriate.
Rebuilt kernel
New Boot Blocks

With the new kernel the system boots, but the keyboard driver fails.

  atkbd0 not attached ...  

(I can only get  a glimpse of the actual message as it flies by,
keyboard is dead, so no 'dmesg', and I also have network troubles
with my 3COM PC-Card...)

System starts up, but my keyboard is inoperative.

I have this in my 'MYKERNEL' config file:

# atkbdc0 controlls both the keyboard and the PS/2 mouse 
controller      atkbdc0 at isa? port IO_KBD tty
device          atkbd0  at isa? tty irq 1
device          psm0    at isa? tty irq 12

When I boot my old 3.0 kernel, the keyboard works fine.
('ps', 'top', etc do not, ...)

QUESTION 1:
I have read LINT and saw mention of 'flags' for atkbd0
How do you use these 'flags' in the kernel config file?

QUESTION 2:
 Any suggestions for my keyboard.
