Well, actually, you need to comment out the line
options MRG_ADB
in your config file and recompile. You should be able to boot your
machine without a mouse attached (assuming you're not using an older
II-series Mac, e.g. those with the dirty ROM's; these machines hang under
MRG_ADB with no mouse attached).
Later.
