Now, I did do a couple of things. I upgraded my kernel to 2.6.20r8 and set the acpi=force kernel parameter. I don't know whether the acpi=force paramenter fixed the problem. I did see the gentoo shutdown.sh script (which you can view at the bottom of this message) and it seems to call the halt command with the options -dp. This means that before the same halt -dp was being used and the system did not shutdown properly. Now I manually enter the halt -dp command and it works flawlessly. So, maybe it was the kernel upgrade or the acpi=force kernel parameter that is causing it to work. # Copyright 1999-2006 Gentoo Foundation # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 opts="-d" [ "${INIT_HALT}" != "HALT" ] && opts="${opts}p" # here it is [ "${RC_DOWN_INTERFACE}" = "yes" ] && opts="${opts}i" [ "${RC_DOWN_HARDDISK}" = "yes" ] && opts="${opts}h" /sbin/halt "${opts}" # hmm, if the above failed, that's kind of odd ... # so let's force a halt /sbin/halt -f On Fri, 2007-06-01 at 12:47 +0900, burlingk@cv63.navy.mil wrote: > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Richard Marz [mailto:Richard.marz@verizon.net] > > Sent: Friday, June 01, 2007 11:40 AM > > To: gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org > > Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Shutdown -h now is not powering > > down system. > > > > > > No. But, I will try it now.
