Now if we start getting more people that like to have more information about the shortcuts I will be more then happy to add them as there are a ton of them. No these that are listed are great ones for troubleshooting issues with your MAC

Startup keyboard shortcuts

Press the key or key combination until the expected function occurs/appears (for example, hold Option during startup until Startup Manager appears, or Shift until "Safe Boot" appears). Tip: If a startup function doesn't work and you use a third-party keyboard, connect an Apple keyboard and try again.
Key or key combination What it does

Option .... Display all bootable volumes (Startup Manager)
Shift ...... Perform Safe Boot (start up in Safe Mode)

C ..... Start from a bootable disc
T...... Start in FireWire target disk mode
N ...... Start from NetBoot server
X ...... Force Mac OS X startup (if non-Mac OS X startup volumes are present)
Command-V ..... Start in Verbose Mode
Command-S ..... Start in Single User Mode
