It seems that it's non-deterministic, and that shutdown -p sometimes works too. Here's what I did. 1) Log in, su to root, acpiconf -s5 and it shut down cleanly. 2) Log in, su to root, acpiconf -s5 and it shut down cleanly. (just checking) 3) Log in, su to root, shutdown -p and it shut down cleanly. 4) Log in, su to root, ifconfig bgp0 inet 10.8.0.2 up ssh otherhost "dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1M" | dd of=/dev/null bs=1M kill it after a couple of moments dd if=/dev/ad4 of=/dev/null count=10000 acpiconf -s5 hung 5) Log in, su to root, dd if=/dev/ad4 of=/dev/null count=10000 acpiconf -s5 worked 6) Log in, su to root, ifconfig bgp0 inet 10.8.0.2 up ssh otherhost "dd if=/dev/urandom bs=1M" | dd of=/dev/null bs=1M kill it after a couple of moments acpiconf -s5 worked sigh. Anything else I can try to generate leads?
