Looks similar to bug #127917.
Booting with nousb does not make any difference
The problem seems to have disappeared after I upgraded the BIOS from v3.6 to v3.8. I may have changed some BIOS configuration during the BIOS update, but I doubt that.
Fedora Core 2 has now reached end of life, and no further updates will be provided by Red Hat. The Fedora legacy project will be producing further kernel updates for security problems only. If this bug has not been fixed in the latest Fedora Core 2 update kernel, please try to reproduce it under Fedora Core 3, and reopen if necessary, changing the product version accordingly. Thank you.
