: How do I choose a different startup disk?

I chose my DiskWarrior CD as the startup disk, now my Mac wants to always boot from the CD. I know holding the 'C' key makes the CD-ROM boot, but what key do I need to press (and hold) to make my hard disk boot again?

Holding down Option gives you all the choices on all your drives.

Oh, I get it. Hold down the 'Option' key to have your choice of Startup Disk options, now I'll remember. Thank you, pras!

Hello,

Don't forget to fix this startup disk in System Preferences, pane Startup diks for the next time. You will gain time at boot because the disk is known.

Option key is always available even if startup disk has been fixed.
