No, but you already can't install on USB-only systems due to hokieness
for USB keyboards.  Intel UHCI controller USB keyboards don't work in the
loader, so you can't hit Enter in between floppies, and due to the way they
emulate older keyboards and the ugliness of the console probe, you won't
have a usable keyboard once the system is booted.  For OHCI controllers, you
can't use the keyboard during the kernel userconfig stuff, though they work
fine otherwise.
