Not sure if this is the correct location to post this message... but I hope
someone at RH will pick it up. ;)

I just installed RH 7.3, and everything booted just fine.  However, after
pulling the keyboard out, and checking it to boot w/o keyboard, it hung after
the message regarding init of APM service.

Plugging in the keyboard allows the boot process to work just fine.  I
followed up by testing an upgraded kernel (2.4.18-4), as well as updating the
BIOS on the motherboard to the latest (release 8)  Neither option helped.

I then added the option to the kernel boot line in grub (apm=off) and viola,
the kernel boots now without any problems when the keyboard is unplugged.

This might / probably has something to do with apm/acpi I have a hunch.

Thanks for your time.
