small custom CD issue/question

[Keegan, Gordon]

I have built a custom CD and ks.cfg file to do an automated install and
setup.  It's a fairly stripped-down package set with the Core and Base
groups and a few additional individual rpm's.  The only odd thing is
that when it's done and returns to the "Complete, press <ENTER> to
reboot" screen, pressing <ENTER> does nothing.  I have to
<CTL>+<ALT>+<DEL> to reboot.  I'm hoping that someone has seen this
behavior before (and figured out what caused it!)

Below are the isolinux.cfg file and ks.cfg files.

Thanks in advance!
Gordon Keegan
