I'd go with "shutdown" being the best practice, since it does what you want it to do. If you *really* want to do things the "systemd way(tm)", maybe the manpage will have something about actually halting / really shutting off the power. I wouldn't know though, systemd is far too invasive for my tastes; and I don't need all the "whizbang features" they claim will help me out. -- |_|O|_| Registered Linux user #585947 |_|_|O| Github: https://github.com/dpurgert |O|O|O| PGP: 05CA 9A50 3F2E 1335 4DC5 4AEE 8E11 DDF3 1279 A281
