(Holding down D similarly didn’t launch the OS X disc’s Diagnostic Mode.) I tried holding down Command-S to enter single-user mode, hoping to run the fsck command to test and repair the drive. I tried booting from both the Mac OS X DVD and a DiskWarrior CD to check the hard drive for directory corruption, but holding down the C key at startup wouldn’t force the mini to boot from the optical drive. I tried starting up in Safe Boot mode by holding down Shift at startup, but the mini acted as if Safe Boot didn’t exist. I force-restarted a couple times just to make sure this wasn’t a one-time glitch. So it was time to perform some basic troubleshooting. Now, this Mac mini was working perfectly just half an hour earlier, and I didn’t recall it falling victim to any heinous physical abuse during the 15-foot trek between the closet and the desk.
