I will definitely look at Alpha 5 and report how the halt script acts. Actually, I would not expect a regression in the functionality of the 2.6.26 or 2.6.27 kernel compared to the 2.6.24 kernel in Hardy. This error was purely a function of the arguments given to the halt and to the reboot scripts in S90halt and S90reboot. When I removed the "-i" in both scripts, the "unable to iterate IDE devices:no such files or directory" disappeared. And due to the age of my laptop's BIOS when I added "apm power_off=1" to the end of my /etc/modules file, the machine shutdown completely from S90halt. I'll let you know how Alpha 5 runs. Thank you for all your hard work!!
