With no input device,Does winCE can boot?

For debugging,I remove all input devices and it`s drivers,
and winCE halted after explorer.exe excuted.But with no souce
code,it`s hard to debug the explorer.exe.
I guess that is because there is no input devieces.
Is it so?or
some any good and conveniency core debug method?

1) Why do you think you need to remove input devices for debugging?
2) If you provide the NOP keyboard driver then you should be OK as a
keyboard only system is certainly feasible

Because I want to migrate the PXA255 lubbock BSP to my own platform.
But my platform just only has LCD(no touchscreen) and a SPI keyboard.
To debug the driver of the keyboard nees the kernel started.so I want
to boot the kernel first but without keyboard.

As Steve said, include the NOP keyboard driver in your build. My
experience is that WinCE does not like it when there is no keyboard
driver in the build. The NOP driver just stubs out many of the driver
routines and it provides the keystroke translation functions that make
CE happy.
