I had the same thing happen to me. The only thing I can think of was
that my cpu had gotten too hot (~70c) and the system halted to protect
itself. This was on a new 15" Powerbook.
What hardware were you running? Were you doing anything cpu intensive?

A strange one! For no obvious reason a grey veil dropped down across

a message box, white text on black, in English, German and Japanese

normal restart and all seems fine.
This did not look in the least like an OSX message and at first I
suspected a virus or similar. Is it perhaps from Unix?
Information would be most welcome!
