Some computers support both "PS/2" and "USB" inputdevices. If there is only a PS/2 keyboard and the BIOS tells the kernel there is USB keyboard support, then the kernel waits forever for a keystroke from the not connected USB keyboard. You can avoid those hangs by disabling USB _keyboard_ and USB _mouse_ support. HtH Geert Stappers -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
