Others have given useful advice on how to achieve this, but I'm curious: WHY ? It appears non-sensical to upgrade a box and then switch it off? Not even reboot!? I may be a purist, but I find the whole notion of "shutdown" or "reboot" abhorrent. That's something you'd do before physically moving a desktop (perhaps: suspend-to-disk seems better here), or after a kernel upgrade (but then it is "reboot", not "shutdown"). -- Karl E.
