Hi Chris,
Thanks. You're the only response so far to that post.
Symptoms are consistently the same for all 3 commands
(init 1 - telinit 1 - shutdown now).
Happens at least on Ubuntu 14.4 and Mint 17.
Does not happen on Ubuntu 10.4.
Screen briefly flashes.
Screen goes totally black.
Power remains on.
No disk activity.
No response to
ctrl-d
ctrl-alt-del
ctrl-alt-F1, ctrl-alt-F2, etc.
Hitting reset button or power cycling results in a reboot that includes
a disk integrity check.
Darnedest thing. First time I think I've ever seen basic Linux commands
that didn't work.
Looking forward to learning the cause/solution. Otherwise I'll have to
learn how to create a GRUB menu and add a persistent (remains after
kernel upgrades) "boot to single user" option.
Regards,
Carl Turney
