There should be a bios entry that determines the state of the box when power is restored. Perhaps the bios on the Redhat box is configured to remain off when power is restored. As for the fsck on the root partition, are you sure it is set up for ext3? If your ext3 support is modular, I believe you need an initrd.img so you can mount /root as ext3.
