Have you upgraded your keyboard within osx?. I recall an upgrade long time ago, and i can access of or the boot menu pressing option on my wireless keyboard. Mine is the version without numeric part. The sad part is that i can't use it under mos, neither my mighty mouse, and there are people who has it running.

No, when i said upgrade, it was a firmware upgrade of the keyboard under mac os x. The update was done via bluetooth, in order to add some features and removing some problems.
After that upgrade, i was able to boot into open firmware on my mac mini with the wireless keyboard. Later, when i installed mos, it can be accessed the boot menu pressing alt on the wireless keyboard, but once mos booted, the kwyboard dont work there, so i have to rely on a usb keyboard since then.
