What displays on the LCD while the Qube is in this "mode"?

Is this a Qube Professional (with RAID) or a single-drive Qube?

What preceded this behavior -- power failure? Patch installation?

Have you connected a null modem cable to the serial port on the Qube 
to see what happens during boot up?

No, Qube uses ext2 filesystem, which Windows cannot understand. You'd 
need to mount them as a secondary drive in a Linux box most likely...
