Well it was a long time ago I messed with this but never found a grub version
which worked with the --once option. Still using old and trusty lilo for this
very reason. But things with Grub might have changed by now.
Hi Robert,
I have found a version 0.95 plus the IPCop patches, or a SuSE 0.95-10.
(SuSE has a grubonce script)
I'm not sure that this is a problem with the patches of some odd
configuration detail.What I've found out is that grub is a bit fussy.
The first time we set the default to 0 and the power of entry to say 2,
then reboot.
After this it is possible to change the menu.lst or grub.conf to use
default saved, afterwards it will boot to entry 0 when shutdown with the
--once option OR it will boot with saved default if normally rebooted.
Took me quite some time and a few gray hairs to figure this out.
I've attached the grub.conf file and my shutdown script which may make
this clearer.

[Freevo-users] Freevo 1.5.x Wakeup Client and Server
Hi all, I just written a client/server process to set the nvram and shutdown the machine. I allows a fall-back time for the next start if no program has been scheduled to record. Fall-back times are there to allow running of cron jobs such as tv_grab. It sets the nvram with nvram_wakeup, but I'm uncertain where to add the code to do the actual shutdown. It could be either in the client of server. That is where I need your suggestions. One problem I'm having is finding a version of grub that actually works with the --once patch. It seems to stay at the poweroff entry. The source is http://www.linuxowl.com/software/wakeup-0.0.1.tar.bz2 (or http://svn.linuxowl.com/ffs/trunk/wakeup/). There's a README in there. ;-) I'll put this in the plugins page when I've done this last step. Feedback is always welcome. Cheers, Duncan - Using Tomcat but need to do more?
