In my understanding it's not the same raw mode.
kbd_mode change between hardware scancode/ ascii code.
stty change the tty line discipline and as far as I know it doesn't
need and doesn't use terminfo.
As a matter of fact the console is not really in full raw mode (or
CTRL+J wouldn't work) at least on PPC, icrnl is unset.
IIRC stty -raw < /dev/console can be execute before ejecting the CD,
init keeps /dev/console open and anyway the default tty line
discipline should set icrnl, don't know which prg unset it though.
