The fact that you can shutdown within Linux suggests that your

I've been seriously thinking about getting a copy of the legacy FBSD 5.5 that's on the website. Maybe there isn't a difference between it and the 6.2
as far as this powerdown issue is concerned.

You're likely to have better luck with 4.11 than 5.2; if you want to try a 5.x release, go with 5.5, as the early 5.x releases were only so-so in terms of stability before 5.3...
