I tried the current d-i daily built netboot image with 2.6 and a usb
keyboard and it worked. The loaded modules included usbkbd and usbhid,
plus of course the correctly detected usb controller modules (both
uhci-hcd and ehci-hcd in my case). If the installer is not loading the
right module for your USB controller, we need lspci and lspci -n output
for your system in order to fix it.
I can't get that until next week. Is the info from the d-i hardware-summary useful?

Blindly loading all the usb controller modules is not safe, some of them crash some machines.
Interesting. I'd expect the kernel driver to abort if couldn't recognize a device.
