Well GENERIC is sort of wishful thinking at the moment.
I would use TIMESINK or SCSITEST as the basis for your config.

I was not able to debug the keyboard console stuff due to lack of
a test machine with a keyboard.  If you'd like to try to fix it,
I'd suggest you (1) define DEBUG in zs.c to see if the keyboard
port is generating interrupts, then (2) add debugging printf()s
to make sure kbd.c:kbd_rint(cc) is getting called, etc.

I'll be happy to try and help you debug the thing.

Sorry, no etc.sun3 yet.  It can be empty.

I can send out preliminary MAKEDEV later (remind me if I don't).

Hmmm... You should only need /dev/console to get a prompt, I think.
Do you have both zs0 and zs1 in your config file?  (see SCSITEST)
You should see a message just before the UCB copyright that says
which console the kernel will use, i.e.:
	console on kd0 (keyboard/display)
Do you see this?  If not, you may be getting the prom console.
