When I boot cdrom -s (use Solaris 8 02/02 1 of 2 CD) I can get a USB keyboard to work, but not the tadpole's.. I see in /etc/dacf.conf lines :

driver-minorname="hid:keyboard" consconfig_dacf:kb_config post-attach - pushmod="usbkbm"
driver-minorname="hid:keyboard" consconfig_dacf:kb_config pre-attach - pushmod="usbkbm"

driver-minorname="zs:keyboard" consconfig_dacf:kb_config post-attach - pushmod="kb"
driver-minorname="su:keyboard" consconfig_dacf:kb_config post-attach - pushmod="kb"

driver-minorname="kb_ps2:keyboard" consconfig_dacf:kb_config post-attach - pushmod="kbsm_ps2"
driver-minorname="su_pnp:keyboard" consconfig_dacf:kb_config post-attach - pushmod="kb"

How do I boot the machine so that I can modify the dacf.conf file as per fix above?...
