You need to use the "-h" flag to halt. From the man pages: shutdown does its job by signalling the init process, asking it to change the runlevel. Runlevel 0 is used to halt the sys tem, runlevel 6 is used to reboot the system, and runlevel 1 is used to put to system into a state where administra tive tasks can be performed; this is the default if nei ther the -h or -r flag is given to shutdown. Type "man shutdown" to get useful info like this about "shutdown"; it also works for most other commands. Cool, eh?
[Cooker] Power off @ shutdown enabled
don't know if this is normal, but the halt -p and kde > shutdown does work properly. but when i do a "shutdown now" at the command prompt, it starts the shutdown sequence but turns into "single user mode".
