As pgf and dsd have thought, the problem lies in the ul-warning script I tried to reproduce the problem w/ the following bash script but to no avail testshutdown.sh poweroff & while true; do chvt 3; done my bash skills are likely lacking pgf and dsd probably could fix this eventually but the easiest way is to simply disable the script so that the image is not displayed at shutdown. We dont' have any legal reasons that compel us to display the ul-warning so we are just going to remove it from our custom build. Please let me know if removing ul-warning will cause any adverse effects besides not displaying the ul-warning image. tks again to pgf, dsd, quozl, and others who have helped -- Bryan W.
