Apple's support document If your Mac beeps during startup says:


Three long beeps, three short, then three long

To resolve a firmware issue, your Mac is restoring its firmware. You might see a progress bar, after which your Mac should start up normally.


Is this what your Mac is doing? You reported short/long/short whereas the support page says long/short/long.
