I noticed this first with the OEM Vista that I played with for a bit before starting to install FreeBSD, but didn't pay much attention to it then. Now when I do a shutdown -r now I get a proper shutdown with the last line on the console saying Rebooting The power stays on, but the machine just hangs at that point. I looked through BIOS settings and all that I found that was possibly meaningful was to reboot after power failure, which I've enabled. But that doesn't help. Although I think that the problem is well before the OS plays any role, the system is running 7.0 Beta 4. This happened with the GENERIC amd64 kernel as well as with my custom one. This machine will be tucked away in a closet and I don't want to hold the power switch to get it to reboot. Any suggestions would be welcome. And if I didn't provide enough information, just let me know what y'all need. Cheers, -j -- Jeffrey Goldberg http://www.goldmark.org/jeff/
