I want to add a shortcut to Startup Disk on my desktop (or dock) so I can quickly toggle which partition (Leopard and Vista) to boot...is this possible?

The reason for this is that the Mac mini doesn't like my Apple keyboard and for some reason pressing down alt at bootup doesn't do the trick of loading up the HD selection screen.

Any ideas?

Sure!

/System/Library/PreferencePanes

Look for "StartupDisk.prefPane" and put it in your dock.


I think you need to be running an admin account to do it, though.
