This will be the problem then. hcid should be run at startup by
/etc/init.d/bluetooth. This should be enabled by default. Please can you
look in /etc/default/ and see whether any of the following are true:

   /etc/default/bluez-pan exists
   /etc/default/bluetooth contains BLUETOOTH_ENABLED=0

please also check what /etc/init.d/bluetooth start does (does it start
hcid) and what ls /etc/rc*.d/*bluetooth returns.
