Applied patch by "Grey":

Browse Source 
Entering the boot loader menu has changed/simplified while reducing the boot time by .75 seconds.
Now it is enough to hold one of shift/Esc/F8/F12/Space. Thanks!

I've also updated the boot loader documentation to reflect the change, but I only mentioned holding shift.
I know that changing the documention directly is not preferred anymore, but I wanted to make sure this
patch is complete.

<p>Haiku's Boot Loader can help when you experience hardware related problems or want to choose which Haiku installation to start, if you have more than one (maybe on an installation CD or USB stick).<br />
It's also handy after you installed a software component that acts up and prevents you from booting the system to remove it again. The <i>Disable user add-ons</i> option that's mentioned below, will start Haiku without loading user installed components, e.g. a driver.</p>
<p>To enter the Boot Loader options, you have to press the <span class="key">SPACE BAR</span> right at the beginning of the boot process. It's easy to miss so you best keep hitting the key until it shows up.</p>
<p>To enter the Boot Loader options, you have to press and keep holding the <span class="key">SHIFT</span> key before the beginning of Haiku's boot process. If you have a boot manager installed, you can start holding the <span class="key">SHIFT</span> key before invoking the boot entry for Haiku. If Haiku is the only operating system installed, you can start pressing <span class="key">SHIFT</span> while you still see boot messages from the BIOS.</p>

<p>Once it's there, you're offered three menus:</p>
