Something like:

        /vsta/boot/mouse -type {pc98_bus, microsoft_bus, logitech_bus,
            serial, ps2aux}

For ps2aux you may also need to add the "-bus" option, if mouse motion
doesn't track correctly without it.

You can have any NIC you want, so long as it's an NE2000. :-(

This would be a really, really good project for anybody interested in doing
something Truly Useful. An example of the approach to take is the wrappers
which the Flux OS Kit folks put around the FreeBSD drivers.
