Hello,

I thought it might be a good idea to use a PS/2 mouse
in order to have a additional serial port. 
So I started to build a new kernel, configuring it with

  "device psm0 at isa? port "IO_KBD" conflicts tty irq 12 vector
psmintr"

After installing the new kernel I plugged in my new
PS/2 mouse, rebooted my computer and during startup I 
had to read

  "psm0 not found at 0x60"

Does anyone have a helpful advice for me ???

Thanks in advance, 
Torri
