I boot L4Linux-2.6 on Fiasco, using l4con on a graphical console, and the drops ramdisk. Everything boots well, and I obtain the "dropsbox login:", but, unfortunately, I have no keyboard entry ... In the previous kernel messages, there is one saying :
i8042.c: Can't read CTR while initializing i8042
Can it be related to my problem ?
Thanks Pascal

Likely, yes. You need to deactivate this driver in the Linux configuration. (Drivers -> Input device support -> Hardware I/O ports). It has probably deconfigured the keyboard controller so that is doesn't work properly anymore.
