=46rom the 5.3-REL Errata file :

(31 Oct 2004, updated on 5 Nov 2004) For FreeBSD/i386 and FreeBSD/amd64, wh=
en=20
installing FreeBSD 5.3 using an USB keyboard the keyboard will stop working=
=20
once the kernel boots, because a PS/2 keyboard is always considered to be=20
attached. As a workaround, select ``Escape to loader prompt'' in the boot=20
loader menu and enter the following lines at the prompt:

set hint.atkbd.0.flags=3D"0x1"
boot

Note that if you use the boot floppies, this is set by default.

After the installation, add the following line to /boot/loader.conf:

hint.atkbd.0.flags=3D"0x1"

I'm having the same problem...
Hope this helps ;-)
