Thanks for all of the information, but I still haven't found anything
that will boot on my iMac.  I am trying to catch the messages as they
scroll by :-).  The first one that seems suspicious is something
about "hub 0 timeout" trying to attach or initialize.  After that I
get continuous "USB-HUBM Cannot attach to port 0 of hub....." and
"USBD: Transaction....endpoint 0, timed out".

Hacking code now.......I have the 2.2.5 kernel patched up to 2.2.6
with the other keyboard and usb patches as described on johnb's
imaclinux.net pages, as my starting point.  Should I be using something
else?
