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."

FWIW,
