Anybody!

Can you tell me the command to type, so that I can shutdown after a specified number of minutes?

I want to keep going for 3 hours, while a download finishes!

Cheers,

James

shutdown -h xxxxx

xxxx = time
from; 'man shutdown'


The time argument can have different formats. First, it can be an absolute time in the format hh:mm, in which hh is the hour (1 or 2 digits) and mm is the minute of the hour (in two digits). Second, it can be in the format +m, in which m is the number of minutes to wait. The word 'now' is an alias for +0.
