Startup Shortcuts

Hi,

with time i've beeen learning new startup shortcuts in mac os, like starting up holding "c" starts up from the cd, holding "shift" starts up with no extensions... and some more. Recently (in a wild guess) i found out that starting up holding "x" makes the computer start up using Mac OS X (when installed, obviously).

what i'd like to know is if is there any kind of list to these shortcuts anywhere, as well as the shortcut to startup using Mac OS 9 (if there is one) without going to the "Startup Disk" in the control panel.

thanks a lot
 
I don't know of a list, yet, though I'm sure one is out there. That is awesome if X does that. I'm gonna test it now. Also, T will boot into firewire Target disk mode.
 
yeah, and "d" starts up from another hard drive...

maybe we could start making that list! if anyone would add the shortcuts they know we could achieve a very complete list. so:

"shift"-starts up with extensions off
"command+alt"-rebuilds desktop
"c"-starts up from the cd
"d"-starts up from another disk
"t"-starts up from a firewire ext disk
"x"-starts up using mac os X


of course we could try to restart using every possible key, but with some help we might get this list complete soon.

best regards
