 It sure is!
 
 As root, edit /etc/inittab.  If you've never edited it before, the line
 you're interested in should look like this:
 
 ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -r now
 
 Just change -r to -h.

And do a $init q after this in order to make this available
immediately.

shutting down w/ ctrl+alt+del

Hey,

I was wondering if I could change the bindings of
ctrl+alt+del, so that it did `shutdown -h now`,
instead of `shutdown -r now`

Thanks,
Cameron Matheson
