The boot sequence is generally change by configuring the bios.  This is done on most the computers I have worked by turning on the computer and hitting the delete key but sometimes other keys are used like one of the function keys.  Most computers flash something on the screen telling you how to enter the setup routine shortly after you turn them on.

On my Thinkpad you hit F12 as the laptop boots, you can then select what to boot from
