Try, you'll need to boot single user mode (init=/bin/bash)
and edit /etc/sysconfig/keyboard. Make sure the keyboard type is adb.
And the keyboard map is "mac-us-ext" or "mac-us-std".

Linus' usb stuff uses our standard ADB maps instead of independent USB
keyboard maps.

I'll have the tools ready to automate this "RSN".
