While the information you gave is not enough to know why is your
keyboard input not working, as a blind guess, I'd ask you to check the
contents of the boot_osflags SRM variable. I'd bet it contains the 'n'
For proper OpenBSD operation this variable should be set to 'a' for
mult-user boot, and empty for single-user boots.
