       I have a task here it is:Create the FireStart PS/2 Keyboard
       Driver
       Goal:
       Write a basic keyboard driver that reads scancodes from the PS/2
       controller and prints keys to the screen.
       What the driver must do:
       Read scancodes from port 0x60
       Handle key press events
       Convert scancodes to characters
       Print characters using the kernel’s VGA text function
       Ignore key releases for now
       Requirements:
       Must use inb() to read from I/O ports
       Must NOT use libc or external libraries
       Must run in QEMU
       Must not crash the kernel
       What to do:
       Create a file named keyboard.c
       Add a function to read from port 0x60
       Add a scancode → ASCII conversion table
       Add an interrupt handler for IRQ1
       Print characters to the screen
       Reply to this post with your code when finished
