I was thinking of connecting one keyboard in the AT port and another to the ps/2 header, is there any other way ?
My motherboard has no ps/2 or usb

Why the need for two keyboard connected to the same computer at the same time? I'm not sure how that would even work - the keyboard controller chip only has one set of control lines.
If it has a PS/2 header, then it's almost certainly intended for a mouse.

Comfort in relation to my setup, for no other particular reason, i already use usb and ps2 combo for PII-III and athlon XP.
I think i found a solution for me to use a single keyboard though and still maintain my current setup.
External PS/2 keyboard switch box will accomplish that then, but instead of connecting one keyboard to two or more computers, connect it the other way around.

Yeah i ended up buying this, now i can use my ps2 keyboard on my modern pc and all my retro rigs, i just use a ps2 to AT converter for Pentium I stuff.
