Yes, I just learned that. Very nice... because my boot.plist was screwed and I thought I'd have to reinstall my system because of that. I tried using the install DVD with terminal but it wouldnt open boot.plist (there's no text editor on the install DVD, that sucks). But then luckily I had another computer to go on the net and check out boot options to the OSX.

Hey, I'm new to OS X, so I didn't know about the Shift key.

Pretty cool, I got into Safe mode and edited my boot.plist back to it's normal state.

And I'm happy again! :dev:
