Currently when I enter the command 'shutdown -p' the system shuts down gracefully but I have to press a key to reboot the system. Ultimately I'd like to be able to power-off the system gracefully without requiring the user (me) to press a key afterwards. ===== Rishi Chopra http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~rchopra __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
