The answer was much easier than what I thought - Patience. I assumed the computer was not booting due to not hearing the bootup beep. Thanks to Steve Hastings for pointing out that when booting without a keyboard no beep ever happens. And the computer was not booting because I had it with a different disk setup, and the operating system got confused... And did not want to continue booting. Finally, the VT100 terminal I used to connect to that computer (it has no framebuffer card) finally died after living a long life... All together, I felt among the most stupid people in the world :-) Anyway, thank you for pointing out the correct answer to me.
