The output from "dmesg" would help (the whole thing please, don't trim it). "usbdevs -v" would also be good to have. If they are connected to a controller attached as XHCI (USB-3), as Stefan mentioned, they won't work. Sometimes there might be a BIOS setting to disable USB-3 and use USB-2 instead, which may help. Or you can disable the xhci driver in the kernel, sometimes the controller will attach as USB-2 instead, sometimes it won't attach at all (which can be a problem if your keyboard needs it). Anyway that's worth a try - at the "boot>" prompt type "boot -c", then type "disable xhci" and "quit" if you can still type at that point. > The second is that I have a VT420 serial terminal I’d like to use with > OpenBSD.

This would normally look something like ttyU0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt420 on secure But you could maybe try "cuaU0" instead of "ttyU0" if you are having problems with hardware control lines (read the tty(4) manual for an explanation of the differences).
