Boot hangs with kbd unplugged

[Heinrich Rebehn <rebehn@comm.uni-bremen.de>]

Hi,

I am using etherboot 3.2 and mknbi-linux 0.7.1(netboot). Works fine!
However, if i want to operate a Linux PC without keyboard (printserver),
the boot process hangs after the message

	Linux Net Boot Image Loader

As soon as i plug in the keyboard, the process continues with

	Uncompressing Linux...done
	Now booting the kernel

Is the Boot Image Loader waiting for any keyboard input?
If so, can this be disabled?

TIA, Heinrich
