Missing Video Card Issue

[Henry]

Greetings!

I've just come across an interesting "quirk" when installing RedHat Linux 
8.0 onto an old 233 MHz Cyrix 6x86MX box with a S3 Trio64 V+ video card.

If I install RH8 with GRUB as the Boot Loader (using default values) then 
shut the box down, remove the video card, and try to boot again - it 
hangs.

If I install RH8 with LILO as the Boot Loader (using default values) then 
shut the box down, remove the video card, and try to boot again - it 
boots.

It would _seem_ that GRUB cannot be used to boot a box with no video card 
installed.

At least, that's the generalisation.

I don't have other PC hardware available to test to see if it's just an 
issue with my particular hardware combination, so I can't do much else 
with this except report it - which I have now done.

Thanks for listening!
