>Description:

        If I boot my MacBook1,1 with the `-c' switch, the userconf
        prompt shows up with a cursor that flashes wildly.  Keyboard
        input does nothing.  The same happens with a -current kernel.

>How-To-Repeat:

        Boot NetBSD on a MacBook1,1 with the `-c' switch.  Fail to
        interact with userconf.

>Fix:

        Yes, please!  jmcneill suggested that userconf needs to talk
        USB rather than PS/2 or something like that.
