I'm still learning about "halt" and so on. There are several options
for halt that I have used; they cut down on the errors but DO NOT
stop the system altogether:
-f Don't do a shutdown(8) - force halt or reboot
-n Don't do a sync
-d Don't write wtmp record (implied by -n).... trying to write wtmp
is what caused most of the errors
-i Shutdown all network interfaces first
-p When halting the system, do a power off - this is what happens
when it is called as /sbin/poweroff
Here is the actual call:
/sbin/poweroff -idfn
Ideal would be to get:
System is halted.
--press any key to reboot--
But I'd settle for:
System is halted.
<and system total lockup>
