It was suggested in one reply that it might be my MB is not supported. In the shutdown the script reaches "Power down. general protection fault: f000, cpu: 0, EIP:" then a bunch of what appears to be memory addresses finally ending with "Code: Bad EIP value, /etc/rc0.d/s01halt: line 1 2829 segmentation fault halt -i -d -p."
The last part of the /etc/rc.d/init.d/halt file is:
HALTARGS="-i -d -p"
if [ -f /halt ]; then
HALTARGS="i -d"
fi
eval $Command $HALTARGS
I have tried various combinations in the HALTARGS segment with no success.
Suggestions please.

I am dual booting with WIN 98. Netscape 7 has not been stable in Windows. May be a common problem.

How can I correct it?
I've seen similar errors twice (can't recall exactly), once was bad RAM, the other was poor CPU cooling. Might want to start with those.....Have you tried doing a "halt" from the console instead of the GUI? You might be able to figure out a bit more quickly if you change the runlevel to 3 instead of 5 (graphical) - then ya should be able to view exactly everything that's happening while the "halt" is happening...BTW, have you seen similar while doing a restart, or is this just when you're doing a "halt" ?
