It would be handy to get more detailed information about your device:

- pciconf -lv
- usbconfig output for the device (See:
https://wiki.freebsd.org/USB#Debugging_USB)

If necessary, have a second keyboard attached to get past the installer, or use
something like NomadBSD [1] to live boot off a USB key.

Regarding how you know what versions get fixes, when bugzilla issues are
resolved by commit, the commits are made to particular branches of the
repositories, which indicates what FreeBSD versions the change was applied to.

There's additional reports regarding this and other Corsair keyboards, see
also:

In particular if your keyboard has a "legacy mode" switch, people have reported
that that gets them their keyboard working (but with flashy lights)
