    hi...

    i have a linux rh8.0 with a bios that says it's EA81501A......

    i'm trying to get it back to being able to boot without the
    keyboard/mouse...

    it was booting without the mouse, and i've managed to do something to it, so
    that it now requires the keyboad to successfully boot. without the keyboard,
    it gives a 'Keyboard error' early in the boot process, and then it hangs
    later in the boot process....

    any ideas/thoughts/etc.. would be greatly appreciated!!!

    thanks

    bruce
