Re: [PATCH] USB keyboard

[step21]

O.k., finally got everything patched and booted from it.
What I did: Just to be sure set root with "root=(hd0,2)"
then set debug=usbkeyb or usb_keyboard (tried both)
then insmod uhci;insmod usb_keyboard; terminal_input usb_keyboard
I get no new promp and it "hangs".
To get debug output, do I have to include a #define DEBUG_USB_KEYBOARD
or something in the src too in addition to debug=usbkeyb
?
