When your machine do 'shutdown -h now', what is the last message
appearing on the screen? When I do it in qemu, I get these lines:
Will now halt
Shutdown: hda
System halted.
The first line is from init.d/halt, the second is from /sbin/halt, and
the the last line is printed by the kernel in the reboot() call. Do
you see these lines when your machine fail to power down?
Would it help if I say "sometimes" or even "most times" when the
system has switched to console. It sometimes sticked on displaying
the X screen.
Some more details about this problem I posted to debian-devel at
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2006/03/msg01108.html
It might especially be interesting that I observed at one single
occurence
Unmounting remote and non-toplevel virtual filesystems ... done
after the "System haltet".
Kind regards
Andreas.
