  What happens if the master DB crashes? Does SQL server service start? What happens to the user databases?

  Okay, I'll make a start here

  There are some explanations in BOL. Look for "Rebuild master". In addition I have a link to the MS KB on this topic http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;298568

  Not much, but a beginning anyway.
