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.
