I've been trying to help someone on the list with acpi related shutdown
problems, with no success up to now.
When I had shutdown problems with FC5 (fixed with using acpi=force), someone
on the Fedora list suggested that it could be a problem with SMP kernels.
I Googled a bit the other day, and found stuff about recompiling the kernel,
and disabling SMP in it, but is there a way to disable SMP by appending the
kernel line in GRUB?
I read one comment that said:
To disable SMP at bootup, use,
noreplace-smp
Is that an appendment to the kernel line or what? I don't want to suggest
something stupid for Mark to try.
Any comments, suggestions welcome.

Yes, you would want to append that to the kernel line in
/boot/grub/menu.lst . You may also want to try nosmp or maxcpus=0 , both
of those will disable the smp code.
