[CUBE] Would a Cube boot with no screen connected (under OS9)

[kevin at 216websolutions.com]

Panther (not Server) boots without a monitor.  My cube has no graphics 
card at the moment, but it boots fine, and with VNC set to auto-start, I 
can export the display to another box.I do have a keyboard attached. 
Services run fine, even without VNC running.

I haven't tried OS9, but on prior boxes, I ran OS8 headless, and used 
timbuktu. I had to attach a monitor cable converter (perhaps a KVM switch 
would have worked) to trick the box into thinking a monitor was attached. 
Though, without a card, you can't do that.
