the apm is what shuts down the machine. apm is not safe with smp and is
diabled automatically. i do not know any of the details, however, you
get to turn the power off manually on your bp6 just like i do with mine.

as long as you use smp, you get to shut off the machine manually. if you
boot the uniprocessor, it will shut the power off automatically. i have
never tested this since i only used the uniprocessor to solve some
problems with 7.2 and never used it for a shutdown.
