Some modern systems no longer emulate the legacy i8042 controller, which is fine if there is a USB keyboard. Unfortunately, some newer systems also lack the ehci(4) USB 2.0 controller and it's companions, uhci(4) and ohci(4). Your Apple system may only include USB 3.0, or an "xHCI" controller, which support is still being worked on. The keyboard works at the boot> prompt because boot(8) is using BIOS services which are emulated by Apple's EFI firmware. The future is encroaching, but we're catching up. Hold on! :-) -Bryan.
