Can you boot Linux headless? I seem to recall a conversation months ago that said not really, because there'd be nowhere to report bootup problems.
I think the answer really is "it depends" It is more of a PC thing than a Linux thing, and even then it depends on the distro you are using. I have lots of linux on a KVM, mostly because sometimes I need to see the startup messages. Some BIOS really want to see a keyboard to boot properly. Some have settings to ignore a missing keyboard. We bought a bunch of IBM rackmounted Linux boxes a while back and they don't even have a VGA output for video. -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
