I have a firewire external dvd/cd drive as the internal drive is mostly faulty.(unreliable)
I hold opt at boot for the boot menu, I select the boot cd and then it reads the cd and will loop back to the boot menu.
Holding C doesn't work.... and I have tried the opt-cmd-shift-del but it doesn't seem to work either? maybe I am using the wrong key combo or pressing at wrong time.(not too good with macs, this one was given to me after HDD drive failed and I decided to take a crack at it with linux)
