Comments/Problems:

Using the HP USB keyboard (Model SK-2502U, P/N A4983-60401) on an HP C3600,
the regular 4 arrow keys (seperate from the numeric keypad) do NOT work.
They "select" instead of moving the highlight up/down.

Use the numeric keypad instead - it has "arrow keys" on it as well.

It's more "natural" to use the regular arrow keys and it should be
trivial for the right person to fix.  I gather the numeric pad sends
out a different scan code than the four "arrow" keys.

I only needed to boot the system to recover a palo (v1.4 built with gcc
3.3.3) which fails to boot.
