Sometimes upon a power failure or just normal shutdown/restart, Haiku gives a choice of booting in safe-mode, etc. Is there any way to change settings so it automatically boots in normal mode every time? We run it as our radio station’s automation computer, and we can’t have long periods of “dead air” because Haiku is waiting for input on boot choices if it reboots after power failures.
Perhaps it is a leftover or spurious keystroke that’s triggering the reboot menu. Try unplugging your keyboard to see if that is the problem.
