Some more info regarding my previous post: I managed to get the keyboard working by holding the shift key while booting. With "rw init=/bin/bash" as described above I got a root prompt. I typed in "passwd" and hit RETURN. From this point on the keyboard driver was messed up. Hitting a SPACE key worked like a RETURN, no further characters would show up, Ctrl-Alt-Del was still working though. Actually, I could reset the root password to SPACE in the end. Attached is the "lsusb -v" output for the DELL keyboard.
