...the drive format for Leopard should be GUID...
It's not the format, it's the partion scheme {GPT}. As BGnR pointed out, MacIntels will boot with GUID or APM partioning. The startup Volume should be formatted as 'Mac OS Extended' or 'Mac OS Extended (Journaled)'.
That said, my Mini is booting from a MiniStack v2 on Firewire. It's partitioned as GUID with the volume formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
After cloning the internal to the MiniStack I did a permissions repair and haven't had any problems.
Either David S has a hardware problem or a permissions issue.
