This bug might either be in kernel or initramfs-tools.
With kernel linux-image-extra-3.13.0-36-generic (and previous) I cannot verify the issue, but all other subsequent versions, and also latest linux-image-extra-3.13.0-44-generic are affected by this issue.
See also bugs #1238194 #1066376 #229732 which could constitute proof that this is a regression.
Basically the hid-logitech-dj (and hid and hid-generic) are missing and this makes the keyboard impossible to use in any initramfs program.
I have tried to force the usage of this module, but even with modprobe it fails for unknown reasons. |

This bug might either be in the kernel extra package or initramfs-tools, can't decide.
I have tested all following version of the kernel:
- linux-image-3.13.0-35-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-36-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-37-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-39-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-40-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-44-generic
In all of them, if the corresponding -extra package is not installed then USB keyboard will not work (and display mode will also not be set correctly, although it's a separate issue).
I have narrowed down the issue to the fact that hid, hid-generic and usbhid modules are missing and thus not loaded.

This bug might either be in the kernel extra package or initramfs-tools, can't decide.
I have tested all following version of the kernel:
- linux-image-3.13.0-35-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-36-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-37-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-39-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-40-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-41-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-43-generic
- linux-image-3.13.0-44-generic *
In all of them except latest (-44), if the corresponding -extra package is not installed then USBs keyboard will not work (and display mode will also not be set correctly, although it's a separate issue).
I have narrowed down the issue to the fact that hid, hid-generic and usbhid modules are missing and thus not loaded.

==== Update 18 January
Sorry if you received too many notifications, I have tried my best document the issue and find a solution.
This issue can be split in 3 separate issues now:
1) functions in initramfs-tools' hook-functions do not handle command failures (please merge attached patch), also for modprobe which made it very difficult to troubleshoot the other issues
2) hid modules are currently in extra but - considering the past amount of bug reports and spoilt user experience - these ought better be in the -generic package*
3) linux-image-3.13.0-44-generic doesn't sport a modules.dep that covers the -extra package (as it did in the past)
I hope this bug report will be useful to you guys.
* = if this is not advisable for the -generic package, then would be nice that update-initramfs failed or displayed a warning about USB keyboard usage when -extra is not installed, instead of silently including all those goodies when it is, as it does now |

In all of them (* = except latest), if the corresponding -extra package is installed then USBs keyboard *will work* (and display mode will also be set correctly, although it's a separate issue).
Otherwise, no USB keyboard will be available at all for initramfs programs.
I have narrowed down the issue to the fact that hid, hid-generic and usbhid modules are missing and thus not loaded.
