there are two possibilities:
1. Machine Profile is set to boot into sms menu, change this on the hmc
2. Bootlist on the OS is set wrong
bosboot -a creates a new boot image, -M sets to Normal boot mode, thats ok, but you need to specify the boot devices
if you have a mirrored rootvg, on hdisk0 and hdisk1, use the command
bootlist -m normal hdisk0 hdisk1
(bootlist -m normal -o the see the current device order)
