When booting to single user mode, no rc scripts are executed. So rc.conf is NOT processed at all and keymap setting is not applied.
What I do in single user mode is as follows. #kbdcontrol -r fast -l jp.kbd I'm using vt, and fast keyrate. If you prefer sc, and do not want fast keyrate, try below. #kbdcontrol -l jp.106.kbd No interactive inputs needed. No writes to drives.
