Update:

I let it sit for awhile and then it booted normally.

I'm still having trouble getting on wireless, but I think that is a different problem.

Try zapping the PRAM and disconnecting all peripherals. I had a brand new Apple Al keyboard that caused a Mac Pro to do exactly what you are describing.

You'd be well advised to update to 10.5.2 IMO.
