RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

What exactly did you do? If you hit ESC to see the boot menu seabios expects ypi to pick a menu entry. And, yes, it waits forever, once you interrupted the boot process there is no timeout any more.
> Expected results:
> Seabios reboot, and usb device has been removed from the boot menu.
The usb device should be gone indeed. And in my testing it is gone (iow: I can't reproduce the issue). Can you double-check please?
Hi, Gerd
Test Scenes:
seabios menu check under usb redirection
Test Step:(as bug description)
1. insert a usb to host, start guest with usb redirection.
2. select the redirected usb, reboot vm, check if the usb added to boot menu list.
3. unselect the redirected usb, reboot vm, check if the usb removed from boot menu list.
Test Result:
In step3, after i unselect the redirected usb, vm seems hang.
Additional Info:
I retest it with env bellow, the preoblem still exist.
kernel version:3.10.0-521.el7.x86_64
qemu version:qemu-kvm-rhev-2.6.0-27.el7.x86_64
seabios version:seabios-1.9.1-5.el7_3.bz1392569.1.x86_64
