http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619754 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=619754#c5 --- Comment #5 from Russ Fineman <upscope@nwi.net> 2010-07-05 16:53:54 UTC --- Retried. Think I got what you want. 1. I checked splash=no 2. removed quiet from menu.1st, not sysconfig append default. 3. logged user off and on, did alt/ctl/F1. it went to ksplashx screen. No Action. pressed esc. and terminal logon screen appeared. 4. logged in as root 5. executed shutdown -h now 6. last message displayed was: system will halt immediately [ 627.824321] Power Down and hung used power button to restart system. 7. I do not see the power message, just halt started. Posted last part of boot.0msg at: http://pastebin.com/2q1Z0Zbu I did notice something. at the power Down message, external disc appears to shut off and the flashes occasionally. I get the impression that the mbr may be on that drive, (1TB MyBook drive). It is sdc. Is there a way to tell for sure? Also restart works fine and if I use restart and go to my 11.2 install on sda. I can then shutdown correctly. Please let me know what else I can do. Sorry for the long message. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
