On one of the servers I can't switch to amd64 I need to use PAE setup. 
Problem, it has only usb ports (for keyboard usw.), and in the PAE 
config file, there is:

nodevice	uhci
nodevice	ohci
nodevice	ehci
nodevice	usb
nodevice	ugen
nodevice	uhid
nodevice	ukbd

-> no usb support...   So how am I supposed to access the console then? 
(there is no serial port either).  Can I remove these lines? 

regards,
Olivier
