    RH8.0 boot hangs at 'loadkeys $KEYMAP'

Hi,
We have an HP ML330 machine loaded with RH8.0. It ran fine for a
couple of months, but now we cannot get it to boot as it always hangs
at 'loadkeys us'

The exact point it hangs is during the processing of the
/etc/rc.sysinit file and the line it hangs on is,

loadkeys $KEYMAP < /dev/tty0 > /dev/tty0 2>/dev/null && \
success $"Loading default keymap" || failure $"Loading default
keymap"

(Where $KEYMAP = us,)


I can get the server past this point by booting into emergency mode,
and editing the rc.sysinit file to '#' out the loadkeys line, but it
them hangs again about 10 line further on at,

*.utf8*|*.UTF-8*)
action $"Setting default font ($SYSFONT): " /bin/unicode_start
$SYSFONT
;;

Any help as to what would be causing this would be much obliged.

Thanks,

Keith
