I am having a problem and was wondering if someone could shed some light on it for me. Can anyone explain to me why my machine will only poweroff on shutdown with a Redhat kernel?
I am running redhat 7.1 with some rawhide thrown in where necessary to solve dependency problems (for KDE 2.2.1, eg). When I run various generic kernels, everything runs flawlessly except that shutting down always leads to a reboot rather than a power off or system stopped state. Booting into an official redhat kernel solves the problem, but I can't get a kernel patch that I need (win4lin) to apply to the later redhat rawhide kernels, and I need a late model kernel for some of the USB fixes that have been made. Thus, I am stuck using a generic patched kernel and sitting at the system when I shut it down waiting to hit the power button at the right moment when it starts to reboot. Does anyone know how I can get my system to power off with a generic kernel? Even if there is no easy fix, can someone at least explain to me what is governing/causing this behavior?
