PS. Are you (Sven) responsible for the powerpc kernel image? Could you
make sure the i8042/atkbd loads automatically? So that less people
upgrading from older kernels get problems?
Well, yes and no.
On new installs, it works just fine, so

Maybe you can investigate the ramdisk ? It is an initramfs-tools, so you can
look at it with some cpio magic.
I loaded atkbd, but that didn't help. Found

which showed that I've missed to load 'i8042'...
Quoting Sven Luther [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
setting load-bvase beyond 24MB (ideally 32MB) should work.
PRoblem is if you use a huge ramdisk which is loaded down from 64MB though, so
setting load-base to 64MB should be fine.
Indeed, but the default debian kernel should have worked just fine, but

Hi Turbo,
I don't own a PegasOS, but I have some experiences with OF-based

hang after starting to boot..
