Looks like you are lucky enough to have one of thsoe "helpful" systems
that does just enough PS/2 emulation that you attach even when they
don't exist. :-(  You might try setting:

hint.atkbdc.0.disabled=1
hint.atkbd.0.disabled=1

at the loader prompt.  In theory that should cause the system to not
even try to probe.
