Re: Configure RH 8.0 as server without console

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Just did this on two of the systems I have.  There was an option in the
bios (hit delete key during boot up for my systems, yours may be some
other key) for stop on error.  They were set to stop on all  errors. 
There was an option for that setting to ignore the keyboard.  Set that
and the system booted as expected without the keyboard or monitor.
