[macvoiceover] Re: booting from the internal drive

Marshall, I may have to look at the option  key and wonder if it keeps wrapping 
or can you go from the beginning to the end of the list of drives in my case 
two of them?  I was hoping that there might be a key such as holding the x when 
bootingg which allows a person boot form the external drive. I'll give the 
option key a try thanks. Do I just hold it while booting and then get a list of 
drives that I can arrow through or do I use option and arrows while the machine 
is in the boot sequence.

  John,
  Are you talking about the option key?  I checked Help and there doesn't seem 
to be a specific key for booting a specific drive.

    Good afternoon. I have a bootable firewire drive that I use and realize

the internal drive without unplugging the firewire drive. Basicly I need a to 
force boot from the internal like the x that forces booting from the firewire
