Keyboard problem (kernel 2.2.7)

[Sven Hartrumpf <sven.hartrumpf@FernUni-Hagen.de>]

Hi all.

I am using the experimental disks from
ftp://lix.polytechnique.fr/pub/Linux/debian/sparc/exp/disks-sparc/current
as recommended in http://www.debian.org/ports/sparc/problems .

I try to install from disks on a Sparc 1+ (on SUN prompt, I enter
b fd(2,0) ) with correctly recognized Sun Type 5 Keyboard (no mouse).
The rescue disk works, but when I am prompted to enter the "root floppy",
the RETURN key has no effect.
Strangely, the SPACE key continues the dboostrap procedure where I fail
because other keys are garbled too.

Any ideas?
Sven
