Hi,

Check /etc/init.d/halt.  In order to power off your machine "halt -p" needs to 
run.  There's a conditional statement in the script to assign a value for the 
$command variable (which is the halt command indeed) but the switches may 
vary based on some conditions.  If you check "man halt" you'll find the -p 
switch there.

I have SUSE 10.0 and I can send you my /etc/init.d/halt if you want.

HTH,
Jorge
