This may be the hddown bogosity in /etc/init.d/halt, or it can be a problem with the firmware in the laptop. If the later, it is being discursed as an ongoing thread in linux-acpi, and also http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8855 Just edit /etc/init.d/hald and get rid of the hddown="-h"; change it to hddown="". If the bug remains, it means you hit the issue in the kernel bug report above. -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
