make.conf ends with the lines
INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse"

I use genkernel to create the kernel. Mind you, I ran genkernel in a
chroot under Debian Etch. How can I tell whether keyboard support has
been enabled?
It is possible to log in as root on a text console as soon
as gentoo finishes booting (without X, of course). Is this the keyboard
support you mean, or is this something else?
