SubjectStopping Red Hat 6.0 Linux from checking for keyboard at boot time
Date
I just had the  unfortunate experience in grading my Linux cluster with Red
Hat 6.0

All the machines in my cluster have no keyboards. I had no problems booting
up with Red Hat 5.2

Since I upgraded to Red Hat 6.0 I have not been able to boot any of the
machines that do not have a keyboard
The following displays on screen

LILO boot:
Loading Linux .................................

The screen will display this message forever.

The only way to get the system to reboot is to plug in a keyboard and
reboot.

I imagine that this is an extremely undesirable, since most people with
clustered PC’s do not have a keyboard attached to every PC in their cluster

As far as I can tell something is checking for the keyboard in the Red Hat
6.0 during the

Loading Linux.............................

Anyone out there know how to stop it from doing that

Thanks
