I built that machine for another person, which knows nothing about computers, and I wanted it to run everything default. I have already deployed the machine without the shutdown. Actually the lack of the shutdown is not a big deal since one just logout and hit the power button and the machine will safely power off by itself, if Fedora is configured to do that. Clodoaldo
