[gentoo-user] Diskless client will not shutdown.

[Harley Peters <harley@thepetersclan.net>]

I am running a diskless Mythtv frontend client.
Everything is working great accept it will not shutdown.
It goes through all the steps of shutting down successfully including
remounting any remaining file systems read only.
But it never issues the power down command.
Yes acpi is setup correctly.
The runlevels look the same as all the other machines I have.
Anybody have any idea what actually issues the power down command or
where to even start looking ?
