I am entering a tricky part now :-)
--- Keyboard reset
Because there are so many complicated issues here, I will start with
describing something I know about what BIOS and FreeBSD keyboard
driver do. (Beware, this is a long message.)

John,
Thanks for the suggestion, I appreciate it. I did as you suggested

The short panic message was:
panicstr: bremfree: bp 0xcc2a1ae4 not locked
Looks like the same thing to me, sorry.
