 Hello,
     I have fixed this problem, but I don't understand why
 it works.
     I made the following changes to the config file
 and re-built the kernel:
 
      1.  remove device atkb
      2.  add device puc
      3.  add:
          options UKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP
          options UKBD_DFLT_KEYMAP=us.unix
 
 I have installed the same software with USB keyboards on
 many different systems, and this is the first time that I had to
 do this.
 
 The system now works correctly both using the command-line
 and X-windows.
 
 Is it possible that the keyboard is not being recognized correctly
 during the bootstrap process?
