Thnaks for the information people...
Here is the solution that helped me
Temporary;
# kbd -a disable
Permanent;
Modify the /etc/default/kbd file, by removing the # from the entry:
#KEYBOARD_ABORT=enable
and changing it to:
KEYBOARD_ABORT=alternate

Subject: Keyboard/pause behaviour on Ultra 10.
I felt sure this would be in some FAQ somewhere or even the documentation
but I have been unable to find any information.
I have a bunch of Ultra 10s running out-of-the-box Solaris 7.
Unfortuantley I have very little physical room and not enough keyboards for
each. Eventually there will be a CPU switch which will remediate this issue.
How can I stop the machine from returning to the Openboot (OK ) prompt
whenever I unplug the keyboard? I thought the behaviour would be such that
it would happen when the kb was plugged in but not when it is unplugged.
Thanks for any pointers
Steve Haigh
