Thinking about it later, I don't think, in my case, that any daemons were actually started. There was no evidence of the partial-boot-then-shutdown in the logs. I'm pretty sure the system log and kernel log are one of the first, if not the first things started by init before the other daemons.

I thought it was a nice co-incidence that we had vaguely similar issues on the same day. I will admit to a certain amount of surprise that the network boot toolset (Linux-based, and branded by a certain distribution with ties to Novell) would modify the MBR, disabling Grub, without asking or notifying the user. This occurred even though I *hadn't* proceeded with any actions that (should have) touched the disk. Roy.
