as for now i already planned to rearrange boot sequence of this server and 
/etc/rc so network would be temporarily up and sshd active until i log in 
and geli attach needed devices.

but the PROBABLY FReeBSD specific is that some configuration, not
only USB to PS/2 adapters, have problems only when kernel cngets routine.

my friend switched to linux, in spite of lower performance, on his 
dedicated fileserver machine with VIA processor, only because keyboard 
didn't work when geli asked for password at boot, or - for whatever reason 
- in kernel command prompt activated.

it works every other case properly.

I would like to help fixing a problem, but not even have idea how.
