Wait a second here... Do you see a black screen with white text(loading x, y, z etc..) when you boot up with the keyboard out, or does it go straight to the menu?

You may want to look into removing backupmenu completely, deleting any remaining files, removing bootmenu-n900 completely, then reinstalling backupmenu(which will pull in bootmenu-n900 as a dependancy).

In other news, this script:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
echo 'Your encrypted lock code is:'
echo root:$(grep -A 13 lock_code /dev/mtd1|busybox tail -1):
echo 'Save that code to a plain text file, install John the Ripper, then run "sudo john /path/to/passwordfile.txt"'

when run as root from x-term or via SSH on backupmenu, will grab the encrypted 5-digit lock key. This can then be run through John the Ripper, and your key recovered.
I'm thinking of including this script with backupmenu, so you can simply run "getlockcode" from SSH(this -does- require your root pass, however).
