rh9 won't boot without keyboard
Hi,

I've just setup my new server and when I boot it it won't start unless a keyboard's presant, it's not BIOS stopping it from booting, the grub bootloader starts and then starts to load linux, the last message printed to the screen before it hangs is
Code:
apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x0b (Driver version 1.16)
btw I'm using RH9 with Kernel 2.4.20-8, I would prefer a solution that doesn't invlove a kernel upgrade as I am very green to linux and don't want to break it just yet ;-)

I looked around and it seems you need to disable apm in bios.
