miliuco Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 You must activate the superuser (root). Afterwards, open terminal and type in: su root Password: cd /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/ pico com.apple.Boot.plist You can edit the file, press F3 to save the changes and F2 to quit pico. Some ideas about com.apple.Boot.plist: - this file has, in XML format, some boot configurations - time to stop at the prompt (in sec.): <key>Timeout</key> <string>8</string> - to go directly to the graphic mode: <key>Quiet Boot</key> <string>Yes</string> - if a Timeout key exists, the prompt waits for that seconds in spite of the QuietBoot key.
