I am using Colin=E2=80=99s AWS marketplace FreeBSD 11 image. When I =
issue (as root):

	shutdown -h now

it shuts down=E2=80=A6and then reboots in 18 seconds. When I issue

	shutdown -p

or

	poweroff

it does power off. I thought that 'shutdown -h now' was supposed to =
place the machine in a halted state, is this supposed to behave =
differently on AWS EC2?

Many thanks,
Rafal
