 It turns out that when you power on a system, kids pound on any or all
 keys.  OFW does a "press any key to stop boot" (of course, there is no any
 key on the keyboard ;-)).  So in the schools, the kids often are having
 problems booting.

 We suggest one has to type a single particular key (maybe the "gear" key),
 to escape into OFW.

 This is one of the trivial fixes that will make a big difference in the
 schools.
