Hi Greg,
yes there is a text mode boot by modifying the /etc/ttys file, there is a commented out line there that if uncommented it will give you a text mode boot, that together with 'nvram boot-args="-v" will get an osx machine to boot without the finder or login prompt at all. I tried ssh'ing in the machine and running the proper command and it didn't work, I suppose it is the finder dishing out font info to the various apps... I will try tomorrow and let you know.
cheers

have you tried if this works by logging in in text mode only? don't tell me I have to get the machines to login to the finder to get the fonts to work!!

	Is there a 'text mode login' for OSX machines?

P.S. I will try and contact shake support about this :)

	Yes, try to replicate with the shake command via ssh or rsh,
	and if you can, report it to shake support that way, so that
	they can replicate themselves, with rush out of the equation.
