If the menu key does not work, goto Xterminal in Maemo and get a root access (install rootsh and type "sudo gainroot") and then type
chroot /mnt/initfs cal-tool --set-root-device ask:flash
Now when you reboot is should show the bootmenu without pressing any key.
chroot /mnt/initfs cal-tool --set-root-device ask:flash
Now when you reboot is should show the bootmenu without pressing any key.
