Under some circumstances the firmware might take a little longer to reach the UEFI shell. If the ESC key is send and we are still in the Boot Manager phase where hotkeys are active, we might end up booting into the firmware menu instead.

Add a 2 second delay before sending the commands to increase the probability of actually having reached the shell.
