Hi all,
I recently switched from RH 7.0 to SuSE 7.3. While happy overall, I have
noticed some wierdness when shutting down or halting SuSE (either thru the kdm
GUI or using /sbin/shutdown -h).
It seems to get to the following in the console and then, most of the time just
sits there. If I press the power button, nada - I have to either pull the plug
or press the reset button.
Every once in a while, it shuts all the way down, but most of the time it
doesn't. And power never goes off as it did with RH. On shutdown/halt it gets
to the following state:
The System will be halted immediately
And not past this. On occasion it gets further:
md: stopping all md devices
Power down
And when I boot up or (reboot), my disk(s) always get fscked (/dev/hda2 has the
SuSE distro root) - message below:
/dev/hda2 not cleanly unmounted, check forced
/dev/hdb7 has my home partition and sometimes this has the same message/check.
Has anyone experienced this? Should I be worried? I don't have APM that I know
of as my dell was bought in 1998 with Win98FE. I went to the knowledge base at
SuSE and there wasn't really much help; all the info was on early SuSE
versions.
Any help would be appreciated here; I am concerned that this may cause problems
with my disks in the future.
TIA
