to turn the power off automatically, you should use : shutdown -p now instead of the -h which gives you this message.

It's almost impossible to guess what your problem is. Obviously shutdown works. Did you install the boot selector? Please:

1.  Shut down the machine (with shutdown, not halt).
2.  When you see "Press any key to reboot", turn the power off.
3.  Turn the power on.
4.  Describe *exactly* what happens.
