Why souldn't I be able to do that? I was hoping that options missing from
the loaded config would be set to the default value, which in the case of
standard AT keyboard and PS/2 mouse is "yes, of course I want that".

How long will it take to go through all the options, your old config file
at hand, and check that everything you need is there? How easy would it be
to make a mistake?
