change what, what way? do some systems have a halt button next to the reset button? i'm just wondering why when linux shuts down, it reboots instead of just dropping to the SRM prompt. it makes it so that i can't do something like 'shutdown -t 900 -h now' if auto_action is set to boot, because then it'll just boot back into linux. in other words, shutdown -h and shutdown -r do exactly the same thing. thanks for the help, btw. :) -- Tom Vier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> DSA Key id 0x27371A2C
