I think that if you'll configure your machine (after install) with no mouse
(from yast) you'll have no problem when you reboot your machine... try this
at home! ;)
Or if you wanna be absolutely sure, install suse without a mouse attached to
your machine... what about this one? :D

How can I set on SuSE 8.1 Professioanl that I do not have any mouse attached? This is server box without X, keyboard, display and mouse. Each time server is started it cannot find any mouse and prompt me to select and accept "None" for mouse device type.
I thought this was something particular that went wrong on one of my boxes, but I see it's a problem.
I have solved it with
chkconfig --del hwscan
One feature that is cooler in Red Hat than SuSE is the timeout on the hardware detection tool at startup.
Because SuSE does not have this, if you remotely reboot a server, it could get stuck in that "Choose mouse" screen, and it's not fun, because it may happen that the server is far away (another building, another city).
