Question No BIOS , PS/2 keyboard can be used on my X86 emulation board?


Dear everyone, I am a new guy.

I have a trouble now.

My emulation board is a x86 system, and the software architecture is Redboot + kernel + busybox, no BIOS.
Now the PS/2 keyboard cannot be used, because of the BIOS?

Not really enough information.
No BIOS should not be problem if the kernel is designed for the system.
What is the make / model of the x86 system?

The sytemp has the general PS/2 keybd and mouse ports, IDE interface, PCI slot, JTAG interface, uart port, two usb OTG ports, and two ethernet ports.
And 4 MB flash , 16 MB sdram.
It also leave over a slot that can install a BIOS chip.

First sorry for the incomplete info.
Actually, the board is a embeded system, not the PC's motherboard.
