This is a very common problem. If you have a ps2 keyboard, use it, and go into your bios and disable usb functionality. If you do not have that, try to navigate through the install with using "Tab" on your keyboard, install it, get macdrive (you can get a free trial) and upload ApplePS2Controller.kext into your /System/Library/Extensions folder in your apple drive

 

If you cannot get your keyboard working, then I don't know the solution, but someone out there has to
