It was cursory, this was more of a back-burner at the moment. I didn't

This is still mysterious in that I've done that a few times with no
result, whereas by disconnecting the keyboard gets me into the setup
utility. Perhpas my timing is off.

4. Under Primary Startup Sequence, select First Startup Device and

Enter.
5. Use the arrow keys to make your selection and press Enter.

I probably did go into that menu and changed the sequence, but I don't
recall seeing CD.
In any event, you've really done more than I expected! Finding out
that this wasn't related to the OS was sufficient, I googled and did
across SBM early on, but didn't mention it as I wasn't sure if it was
the right direction. I didn't think the boot sequence could be changed
till just now!
Thank you,

I wouldn't think it would be interrupts. The interrupts for the
controller has been set for years now. It worked with a CD ROM and CD
burner for years.

No effect. The only thing that stops the error messages is nodma, which |
of course removes functionality along with the problem.

You could always try mpg321.
mpg123 is on the 'non-free' group. but am not
sure if that affects with your apt reference.

Well, I fixed the problem, but unfortunately I don't really know how I
did it. I ended up installing the SELinux packages (policycoreutils and
selinux-policy-targeted), uninstalling the off-the-web 2.6 FC3 kernels,
and reinstalling an off-the-web FC3 kernel. That particular kernel booted.
My only guess is some weird coupling between the udev and SELinux
packages. Before I did the whole SELinux trick, I noticed after every
reboot (when I was looking at the system from a recovery CD), the /dev
directory lacked many of the devices (most notably the /dev/vc devices)
that exist on every other FC3 machine I have administered. I read a ton
about udev but could not find anything that would point me in the right
direction.
I ended up changing not a single thing with udev, but installed SELinux
and uninstalled and reinstalled the off-the-web kernel, and that worked
fine. I wish I knew more about what exactly happened, but that's as far
as I got with it.
Thanks for your time and the responses,
Jeff

LOL. It seems like a very useful utility. I think I'll check it out for
my own use.
