[Bug 1065851] Re: shutdown now command does not work
'shutdown now' would typically shut the system down until recent updates which also caused reboot now to enter single user mode. why would 'reboot' ever bring the system to single-user mode, even if the user provides incorrect syntax? Incredibly unintuitive, not to mention inconsistent. This is still a bug as far as I'm concerned, as is bug#1174272 - but rather than arguing the point any further, I'm content to much rather grab some popcorn and wait for others to amplify the seriousness of it and hopefuly persuade a clearly stubborn developer -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1065851 Title: shutdown now command does not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/upstart/+bug/1065851/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1065851] Re: shutdown now command does not work
This is correct behaviour - "shutdown now" is supposed to switch to single-user mode unless an explicit option has been set to specify an alternative form of shutdown. What you probably meant to type was "shutdown -h now" which will halt the system (and generally power it off too). The man page for shutdown does need updating to show the default action of "switch to runlevel 1" though. ** Changed in: upstart (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1065851 Title: shutdown now command does not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/upstart/+bug/1065851/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
