Such a key combination, if exsists, will save us the trouble of changing the
boot device priority for floppy from cmos. Does it exsist?

"Ctrl+Home" does not work if the floppy is not for re-flashing.

Not that I know of.My AMI bios allows several consecutive boot options
so I set floppy/Cdrom and then my system drive e.g IDE zero in this
present setup.Therefore if there's no bootable floppy/Cdrom disk in
the drive the system boots as normal.
