When trying to install OpenBSD 4.3/amd64 on a PC (cpu: AMD 64 X2,
board: Asus M2N SLI Deluxe), the system hangs at the (I)nstall (U)pgrade
etc. prompt.

I can't provide the complete dmesg because it scrolls by too fast for me
to write down, but the last couple of lines are:

isa0 at mainbus0
com0 at isa0 port 0x3f8/8 irq4: ns16550a, 16 byte fifo
pckbc0 at isa0 port 0x60/5
kbc: cmd word write error             <----
rd0: fixed, 4480 blocks
root on rd0a  swap on rd0b  dump on rd0b
erase ^?, werase ^W, kill ^U, intr ^C, status ^T
(I)nstall, (U)pgrade or (S)hell?

The marked line made me think of a keyboard error, but I've tried several
keyboards (PS/2, USB, wired, wireless) and it doesn't make any difference.
Also, the keyboards all work fine during BIOS setup, at the boot prompt
and in the kernel config editor thingy.

Any thoughts?
