It gets as far as to:
Flushing ide devices: hda hdb Power down.
or something like that. And then the computer hangs, and I can just press the restart button. Rebooting works (except a few occasional hangs on "Unmounting file systems", but that doesn't bother me much). Is there something wrong with the OS? Or is it something to do with the BIOS or the ATX supply?
I read someone else had problems when shutting down remotely. Could be something similar?
I always do 'shutdown -h now'. The -h puts the machine into halt, actually turning it off.
