Before you hit 'reply', no, I'm not talking about the machine not
getting past the BIOS check complaining that there is no keyboard present.
Kernel 2.6.7
model name : AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2400+
motherboard: http://www.ecsusa.com/products/km400-m2.html
... not sure what else might be useful... apci=off added to boot
options. Preemptive kernel.
In any case, the machine in question does not reboot. I traced the
problem down to the mach_reboot but it doesn't get past those assembly
instructions. Things do seem to work alright if a keyboard is
installed. Otherwise, the machine just sits there, no longer responsive
to pings or anything else.
This appears to be a somewhat common problem, as I found several other
posters discussing it:

any ideas on what parts of the kernel to look at in order to determine
what is causing this?
Thankyou,
