no keyboard on usb install

i just made a bootable usb from the arch iso and although i can see no error messages the keyboard isnt working after the auto login to root .. it works fine anywhere else however including the boot loader. afaik my laptops keyboard uses a ps2 "interface" (if u can call it that) maybe im missing a module or something? how would i load one using kernel parameters ?

the laptop wont boot it has windows 8 on the hdd something happened and now it just hangs at startup
im tryin use arch to access precious files on thr hdd (or even to see if theyre still there) before i do anything else .

anyways any help would be appreciated thx
