Holding down the option key makes the "Install" button change to "Remove", I
believe.

You can disable the CTB by holding down the shift key before it loads.  I've
noticed that the CTB causes init/cdev to crash if you hold down the space bar
while booting to bring up the list of inits you want to load.  That's the only
conflict I've seen.
