[Cooker] Aurora and boot probs also on shutdown

[michael]

I am having a real weird time using aurora, both in the boot process and in 
the shutdown. Booting, it tells me it can't open aurora, then after a few 
lines of the familiar boot sequence go by, it goes into aurora and seems to 
begin again (ie the services already indicated to have started). Then, when I 
graphically initiate shutdown or reboot, my screen goes crazy.

i usually use cmd line, but had noticed an earlier prob w/aurora and want to 
follow it thru...
