Eric,
This is a long shot, but try running Repair Permissions from the copy of Disk Utility that resides on your system, rather than from the CD. Repair Permissions gets its info from the Receipts folder on your hard drive and that may be the problem.

Thanks Nancy for the reply. I have Panther on another disk so I "forced" my startup disk to a functioning Panther disk and ran Permissions. There were items that were repaired. When I rebooted to the ailing disk, the problems were still there. I tried DiskWarrior 3.0 again and the disk had to be rebuilt. It's about 74 % full and I get nervous about disks that full. But after DW the problem of not rebooting, and no shutdown are still present. I guess I need the equivalent of a clean install. But re-installing Panther didn't help either.
