Which machine are you running within the emulator? I know some emulated
machines don't seem to support actually powering off - does reboot work?

   qemuppc, core-image-minimal.  interestingly, "poweroff" doesn't
completely close the QEMU session, but "reboot" does.  it might be
worth adding that to the quick start guide.

The same is also true for qemuarm, we work around it in sato by munging
the shutdown.desktop file to all restart and having the qemu scripts
start qemu with -norestart.

Clearly we should also do the shutdown.desktop munging for qemuppc

What do people think to the idea of putting something into the image for
those two specific machines which aliases poweroff to reboot?

I'd be fine with such a change, I pushed for the ARM mapping to
reboot originally, so doing the same here and an alias would make
the command line consistent with the GUI.
