My RH9 P3 systems fail to boot GRUB while the P4 systems boot without any
problems. When the P3 tries to boot, it hangs before the RedHat Linux
interactive setup at a line that says "apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03
(Driver version 1.16)". If a keyboard is attached to the P3, it will boot
without issues but the system must boot without a keyboard. The P3 will
boot LILO without a keyboard attached. Any idea how to get GRUB to boot
without a keyboard on the P3's?
Thanks!
The grub-0.93-4 RPM is installed.
This is my grub.conf:
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
