I don't have that IPMI card but I can say we have other cards of theirs

The AOC-SIMSO(+) card was not detected correctly until we upgraded. I
don't know why the card is going away when freebsd boots since I assume
you are on the dedicated LAN interface with its own IP address.
Yes. It's not going away, just doesn't see the key strokes.
Looking through your dmesg file, I don't see a USB keyboard being
attached.
On my system, the virtual keyboard is a USB keyboard.

Good catch. When I set it to disable USB Mass Storage when no image
is loaded, the ukbd came alive, and I'm typing this on the IPMI Console.
Thanks!

I have a similar problem as you describe in this posting using a SuperMicro
X8SIL-F motherboard with onboard IPMI. The console redirection works fine
during boot until the OS (pfSense - FreebSD 7.2 Release p5) boots and then I
can't enter anything from the keyboard. Screen output is OK. I notice
there is also no usb keyboard being detected during boot - instead a usb
mass storage device is added. Thus I suspect I am seeing the same issue as
you did.
When you mentioned "When I set it to disable USB Mass Storage when no image
is loaded, the ukbd came alive..." how did you do that?
Can you try to boot FreeBSD 8 or 7.3 live system, not installer? I had
same problem with 7.2 installer, but IPMI works with installed 7.2
GENERIC kernel from HDD.
8.0 installer and installed GENERIC kernel works fine in both case.
So I think there is some bug in older releases.
