Sometimes, on some MB's, you have to go into /etc/rc.d/init.d and edit the file
"halt".
Go to the line (close to the bottom) that says:
"HALTARGS="-i -d -p"
and make it:
"HALTARGS="-i -d"
Thats what I had to do on a Gigabyte MB I used to use... Hope this helps! ;-)
PS Oh-this won't make it shut down completely, but it will stop at a point
where you will know to just turn your machine off, without doing any harm.
