Steve,

I haven't run into this unless I specifically changed the "keylock" parameter to manual in the IVM. I don't know why that would change from boot to boot without some kind of intervention though.

The setting in the IVM is on the "General" tab in the Partition Properties.

sometimes when I power on my BC-S VIOS boots automatically. Other
times the boot stops with a screen on the console saying "PowerPC
firmware. option 1 change language, 2.) change keyboard, 3.) continue
boot. How can I config VIOS to always skip this menu?

thanks,
