Grub: memdisk, at_keyboard

[Dernsen]

Hi,

i got some progress at this topic:

I added the option "--append" to "terminal_input" in grub.cfg:

"terminal_input *--append* at_keyboard"

So, the "grub standard console" *&* "at_keyboard" are active at the same
time. If I have a usb-keyboard connetcted to my notebook, the
usb-keyboard works as the "grub standard console" (US keyboard-layout)
and the internal notebook keyboard works as the "at_keyboard"
(=keyboard-layout of the memdisk as described before).

I also transferred this setup to my worksation with usb-keyboard and at
least the usb-keyboard works with the "grub standard console" (US
keyboard-layout). If i try to change within the grub-shell to
"at_keyboard" by the command:

"terminal_input at_keyboard" -> the usb-keyboard is not working anymore
-> push the power button...

It's better than nothing, but getting the "at_keyboard" with
non-US-keyboard-layout work would be pretty good. If grub offers these
functions I want to use them...
