    There is a setting in there to boot off of the default boot list and not into SMS. You need to change it back after you hit F5.

    Subject: system automatically entering sms menues

    Dear List,

    after installing an mksysb on an p610 with AIX 5.2 ML 5 I have the problem
    that the system enters the SMS menu after rebooting. OS is installed on 2
    internal SCSI-hdds and the bootlist contains only these disks as 1st and
    second bootdevices. If I exit SMS menues without changing anything the
    System boots from these harddisks without any errors. How can I make the
    system boot straight from the disks without entering SMS?

    TIA
    Christian
