I ran into that one once. In my case I had a ps/2 mouse port but no ps/2
mouse plugged in. For some odd reason that killed it and it would keep
rebooting. Once I plugged one in it booted fine. I don't know if this will
help you but I figured... Hey, it's worth a shot. :-)

:Hail, Hail.....it took some work by I was able to load an older version of Red Hat (5.2). Went through the whole install, said it was complete and it rebooted. Then, I experienced failure again........ The BIOS checks, the devices get recognized, LILO comes up, the screen flashes and you can see the kernel begin to load (I think), the screen flashes again and it reboots! It tries again, same results, it reboots! It just keeps rebooting. Anyone ever seen this?
