</snip>Well, some success... I managed to download and install the new kernel (without getting cut off this time), and the shutdown now goes past the original hang point, but now it gets to this:
md: md0 switched to read-only mode. Power down.
...but it doesn't actually switch off!
I assume that it is safe to just hit the power switch at this
point, but is there some setting I could change so it will switch
off automatically?
Margot, om my system - from 9.0 and upwards to 10.0 CE - my power never switched off. When the shutdown procedure reads "Power off" I can hear a tiny click inside the case, but the beast won't die. I just unplug the thing and all is well. No harm done. Same thing on the new kernel 2.6.4 from Thomas.

cannot quite remember which, but doing the same thing on another machine did not work. So I
don't know if this is resevent to your problem, but it sometimes works.
