Killing your keyb.controller... was: Re: forgot root password on head- and keyboardless machine *blush*
Just to add some more noice to the list ;-)
[statement] Hot-plugging keyboards works _MOST_ of the time.
It is true for at least PS/2-keyboard, since the only machine I've
managed to destroy this way is an Digital Celebris 590. My other
machines with PS/2 have survived, so for ps2 types the statement is
true.
When it comes to DIN-keyboards, I have NOT been able to kill any machine
this way.
Finaly, since I have one more Celebris 590 I _could_ verify that these
machines DO die when keyboard is hot-swapped, but I think it might be a
waste of computers if I succeed... ;-)

Btw.
Have anyone mantioned those adapters for some dollar or two?
