Unusual abend on RH 6.2 shutdown

[William Warren]

Brad,

I checked the machine last night:  it goes through a

shutdown -r now

without any problems, so I think you're right about the APM problem.

This was a RH 6.2 "everything" install, so I may have activated some power 
management that I don't need:  it's an APM motherboard, but not an APM power 
supply.

HTH.  Thanks again.

Bill Horne
