I have not followed the thread from the start so this has perhaps been asked before: is the keyboard USB attached and not PS2? In this case, from usb(4) add the "flags 1" to the USB protocols in the kernel config: usb* at ehci? flags 1 usb* at ohci? flags 1 usb* at uhci? flags 1 (I guess this could be limited to the USB 1.0 protocols but who knows...) because : "Sometimes it is desirable to have a device detected early in the boot process, e.g., the console keyboard. To achieve this use a flags value of 1."
