Bug#457044: test booting ability without actually booting



Hello
Is there a way to test or check the boot process without actually booting ?
Because rebooting a remotely hosted server without any garanty that it will be able to start, is a bit like russian roulet... one time it reboots one time it doesn't and if it doesn't nothing else can be done except starting the box with a floppy or a live cd to try to find the problem's cause which is rather difficult on a distant machine.
