RE: Booting without a monitor: No Go
I have it set up for Halt On: no error on that BIOS setting, yet
strangely I still cannot boot up. I disconnect all peripherals
including the keyboard, but leave just the monitor, and I can watch it
boot up just fine. The kernel output just complains that no AT keyboard
is present but I am able to SSH into the system.
I have done some more investigating with disconnecting the monitor at
different times and it seems that once it passes the POST, I can
disconnect the monitor and it will continue to boot up fine. It seems
that it needs the monitor at POST. I think this is no longer a problem
with debian, but perhaps someone might have an idea. It is a Elsa
Geforce 2 Vid Card by the way and KT7 Raid.
Thanks,
Curtis

hi
look on the first page of the cmos setup for an option that
says: stop on ....
it probably says "any error" for sure if it says that, it will stop
with no keyboard attached and never boot.
