Morning-

I actually am doing what you say on 2 machines right now.  The gateway is
a 486 that I have no need for a monitor or a keyboard or a mouse, and the
other system got hozed when a 3.6 gid WD HD failed... so I put linux on it
to run seti@home.

THere are 3 places in the bios you need to look to enable 'dumb' booting-

one is boot sequence- disable your floppy drive.
two is floppy drive options - disable them (if you don't have one, like
me)
three is 'keyboardless operation' - enable that one.

then just disconnect everything when it works and you are set!

Good luck.

Jason
