I'm still seeing the libata warning that disks were not spun down

a new shutdown binary or the changeset mentioned below is not meant
to fix what I'm triggering by halt'ing.

If it's not a bug I will try to update my shutdown utility and if
that does not work I promise not to bother lkml about a problem
caused by my userland. If it is a bug I hope it will be of interest
for 2.6.22 bug tracking.

Setup 1:
SATA 1 Disks
AMD64 3200+
nVidia nForce 3 250 (Ultra?)
Debian i386 Unstable

Setup 2:
SATA 2 disks
Core 2 Duo E6600
Intel 975X
Debian x86_64 Unstable

Just to be clear what warning I'm talking about:
DISK MIGHT NOT BE SPUN DOWN PROPERLY. UPDATE SHUTDOWN UTILITY
For more info, visit http://linux-ata.org/shutdown.html



IIRC, Debian was the one OS that really did need a shutdown utility 
update, as the message says :)

Actually, editing /etc/init.d/halt is enough.  Find the hddown=-h and
change it to hddown=.
