I'll disagree a tiny bit here. One *really annoying* quality of needing to use
F2/F8/F12 during Windows bootup in a VM (including ESX/vSphere) is that
sometimes it can be impossible to be quick enough on the keyboard to get
attention before the OS bootup has begun. By the time you can get a console
focus it's too late. That can be enormously frustrating, and Run Once does help
with that.
On ESXi
Guest menu -> edit settings -> Options -> boot options -> boot delay. I set
all mine to 10,000ms. Delays guest startup by 10 seconds each time you boot, but it’s
plenty of time to get the console up (if you need to) and get press F? to get where you
want to be.
btw, what happens if you boot from [disk, pxe] - if the disk doesn't
have anything on it, its supposed to pass to 2nd boot device, then on
restart it will be ok?
