Alright, I have a USB keyboard and I'm using FreeBSD 6.0-R on a Dell Precision 370 desktop machine.
Now, I booted the machine after an unclean shutoff and it demanded single user mode and manual filesystem checking.
Problem is, the USB keyboard doesn't work in single user mode. It works on the loader prompt and when in multi user mode
but when at the prompt for what shell to use I had to go and dig up a PS/2 keyboard to do the maintenance and then go
back into multi user mode where usbd enables the usb keyboard.
Is there a workaround to this or will I have to keep the ugly old PS2 kayboard on my desk in the future?
