Wireless keyboard would be the problem, as machine does not initialise
Bluetooth until after machine sets system parameters. Same issue most
non Apple USB keyboards face, and even the new aluminium from Apple
with PowerMac G5 machines. I always have to resort to original wired
keyboard, for the system to recognise start-up sequences.
Not sure if this is relevant but Macfixit has this today on its
website.

Problems starting up As with any incremental Mac OS X update, a
number of
users are experiencing an inability to properly startup after
applying Mac
OS X 10.5.2. Our tutorial on startup failure provides some insight.
Fixes
that are proving effective:
Startup in Safe mode: Hold the shift key while rebooting your Mac,
then just
restart normally.
Reset NVRAM/PRAM: Shut down your Mac, then start it back up while
immediately holding the following keys: Command, Option, P and R.
Hold the
keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound
for the
third time.
This also can be achieved by holding power button when starting. One
should hear the start-up sound, so just hold for whatever amount is
recommended then release. Sometimes it does not start so a quick push
of the start button should get it under way.
Another problem that has appeared in past; connected devices via
Firewire, so always disconnect such devices whilst updating.
Cheers!
