I wish I knew why. The fellow that did the install might know. I'm 
betting it's because he clicked yes, yes, yes, yes, ok on the RHEL 
install CD dialogs.

I can't fix it without running afoul of the Change Management process, 
and today's emergency reboot didn't leave me any time to poke around 
and determine the effect of removing hal.

This is how life in corporate IT works....
