Change the BIOS to no keyboard? Or something like that. The keyboard is not a linux function. It only reads the BIOS.

Shows how little you know..most ROM BIOSES are TOTALLY bypassed by linux. Their sole function is to get the OS in place with some form of basic keyboard and screen control. In case intervention is needed.

I guess I have been confused by the necessity to have the BIOS reflect new hardware before linux notices it is there.
