Accessing early startup menu

[Matt_H]

With 3.9 BB2, holding down the Help key will get you into Early Startup.

Below that, you might try the keyboard mouse controls: Hold down both Amiga keys and both Alt keys (Effect of Left & Right mouse buttons), but I've never been able to get that method working.

That doesn't work, the buttons are read by peeking the hardware directly. Only controller connected to mouse port, and holding both fire1 and fire2 down will do it.

Ah, yes. That's right. Got a 2-button joystick to try? That should work. Then use the mouse-keyboard commands to move the mouse and click.
