Got up this morning and booted up the computer, using Chicken of the VNC I was going to check my mail, but it could not locate my file/mail server. I don't keep a monitor on that computer as I usual administer it via VNC. Hooked up a monitor and did a reset, it seemed to start normally, gray screen with spinning gear, then to blue screen with starting OS X progress bar, but that is as far as it got. It completely filled the progress bar and just stayed there.
Next I tried safe mode, booting with the shift key down. Again it started normally and booted all the way to the login screen. Typed in password and it booted, but I had no menu bar at the top of the screen and the dock was not present. Now I've tried booting from the Tiger startup CD and all the further I get is the gray screen with the spinning gear, been doing that for about 15 minutes now. Help!
