Finder Tip - Mac OS X Startup Keystroke Commands
If you've ever had a system crash and had to reboot from your CD drive or other volume on your hard drive, these startup keystroke commands can be a life saver (at the very least, a time saver).

Press and hold X during startup – Forces your Mac to startup in OS X
Press and hold Option-Command-Shift-Delete during startup – Bypasses your primary startup volume and looks for a different startup volume such as a CD or external disk that has a system folder.
Press and hold C during startup – Start up from a CD that has a system folder.
Press and hold N during startup – Attempts to start up from a compatible network server
Press and hold R during startup – Forces PowerBook screen reset
Press and hold T during startup – Start up in FireWire Target Disk Mode (If your system is connected to another Mac by a FireWire cable, your Mac’s hard drive will mount on the other Mac’s desktop.)
Press and hold Shift during startup – Start up in Safe Boot mode and temporarily disable login items and non-essential kernel extension files
