I just tried this and it worked. I set kern.vty=vt and hw.vga.textmode=1 
in loader.conf; then kld_list='i915kms' in rc.conf and it that did it.

Incidentally, with keymap="uk.iso.kbd" an error is shown stating it 
can't load it as no such file or directory; I tried it from the 
commandline and got the same error, so i tried using the full path name 
and that was ok.
