I installed the system r235646 to disk and it shows the same problem: no
keyboard;

I said already that it works with a r214444 version, CURRENT from
October 2010; so I booted this again and concerning keyboard, here is
the diff:

r214444:

$ fgrep -i kb /tmp/dmesg-r214444.txt
kbd1 at kbdmux0
atkbdc0: <Keyboard controller (i8042)> at port 0x60,0x64 on isa0
atkbd0: <AT Keyboard> irq 1 on atkbdc0
kbd0 at atkbd0
atkbd0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
psm0: <PS/2 Mouse> irq 12 on atkbdc0

$ ls -l /dev/kb*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel         6 Jul  1 08:39 /dev/kbd0 -> atkbd0
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel         7 Jul  1 08:39 /dev/kbd1 -> kbdmux0
crw-------  1 root  wheel    0,  17 Jul  1 08:39 /dev/kbdmux0

r235646:

$ fgrep -i kb /tmp/dmesg-r235646.txt 
atkbd: the current kbd controller command byte 0065
atkbd: keyboard ID 0x41ab (2)
sc0: fb0, kbd1, terminal emulator: scteken (teken terminal)
atkbdc0 failed to probe at port 0x60 on isa0

$ ls -l /dev/kb*
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel         7 Jul  1 08:39 /dev/kbd1 -> kbdmux0
crw-------  1 root  wheel    0,  17 Jul  1 08:39 /dev/kbdmux0

the complete /tmp/dmesg-r214444.txt is attached, the
/tmp/dmesg-r235646.txt was in some message of this thread;

So the question is: why the <Keyboard controller (i8042)> is not
detected anymore in r235646, while it is in r214444?

Thanks
