Hi All,

I'm Using CentOs 4 on IBM x3650 server.
From last 6 months server was functioning smoothly and I was able to access it.
But suddenly due power failure in our building premise server shutdown improperly.
Now when I boot/reboot this server keyboard,mouse are functional & i'm able to boot in single user mode also. (able to type linux single) once it start booting I cannot access keyboard, mouse etc.

In normal runlevel 5 i cannot access key device like keyboard mouse even the server is not accessible on lan.

Please help.

Regards,
MSK

Can't really give you help, since you don't give much information about your problem. Have to have more than "it's not working".

Since your server is coming up in single-user mode, what error(s) is it giving you? What's in your system log files? What do you see on the console, during boot??
