[CentOS] Booting without a keyboard

Or, on power failures....
I got home last night, and the Dell I mentioned was off.
Turned out that the power was out for a few hours yesterday.
I jumped in the bios on startup and changed the "halt on errors" to "except
Keyboard"
AND changed the AC power failure to "Last" so it will power up when the
power comes back on.
No UPS on this machine.
It's only been in place for 4 days.
It's a friends machine hosting a few websites on my FTTH connection.....

  Why not put it in the closet boot the machine and then pull the keyboard..
Only time you reboot is on upgrades of certain packages.  I have a couple
compaqs I have to plug in a keyboard to reboot.
