Searching keyboard.c:
a) Found on the book. (But need softcopy)
b) Not found in the cd. (I wonder if the code is compressed or saved in a different format or name?)

Try reading the readme.txt, or the chapter "what's on the CD", instead of brute-force searching for a filename... ::)

there are chances the sources are in a big gzipped tarball

It's definitely on the CD. If it wasn't, I wouldn't have a directory called 'minix' on my hard disk.
(And no, I can't email you my copy.
