Booting using serial console

[Gary Aitken]

   I  don't see one in this one.  It's a pretty old BIOS in a micron
   P200.
   Bummer.  Thanks.

   The serial ports are ok.
   However, in checking that out I discovered that it will boot from the
   serial console if there is also a keyboard plugged in (no monitor).
   So then I put the monitor on and unplugged the keyboard.
   The boot sequence shows:
     "keyboard error"
   during the initial BIOS boot.
   Then, when the scsi devices are probed, I get
     <F1> to resume, <F2> to setup
   It looks like BIOS won't let me boot unattended without a keyboard.
   With the keyboard, it comes up ok on the serial port.
   Anyone know of a way around this?

Most BIOSes have a setting to ignore keyboard errors on bootup.
