There seems to be something very wrong with your startup/shutdown scripts
as both this problem and the networking issue are handled by those scripts.

Did you try turning on the verbose mode?  If so, you should see a line like
this during shutdown:
  INIT: [2014-03-18 17:33:20.978789236] Running /etc/rc6.d/S25save-rtc.sh 
stop...
and another like these on reboot:
  INIT: [1970-01-01 00:00:05.079166199] Running /etc/rcS.d/S40networking 
start...
  INIT: [1970-01-01 00:00:05.103022145] Running /etc/rcS.d/S55bootmisc.sh 
start...
