Monomachine won't go into Early Startup Menu?

I can’t seem to get my Monomachine MK2 w/OS1.31C to load the Early Startup menu. I’m pressing [FUNCTION] and holding it down while I power on the unit, but it just starts normally. The machine works fine otherwise - I’ve never had any issues with it.

I’m assuming I’m doing something wrong, but those instructions seem pretty hard to mess up.

Any help would be appreciated!

Yeah, Power Off. Hold [ Function ] and Power On.

Is the [ Function ] key working as expected in normal operation?

Yep that’s what I’m doing! And yeah, the [Function] key works fine otherwise.

I feel like I can hear the Twilight Zone intro

Interesting. I’m afraid I don’t actually own a Monomachine; so um, someone who does should be along shortly. Sorry.

Might be a bug in OSv1.31C as the latest is OSv1.32?

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking - maybe it’s a different key combo for this OS or something.

All good, thanks for replying!

Yep that was it. I tried holding down the [STOP] button and the Early Startup menu popped up!

Problem solved!

I was able to upgrade to 1.32B - and my [STOP] key is still what I need to press to get into the boot menu! I guess my MnM really is special :smiley:
