So this is all very much expected. shutdown +5 -p will go to single-user mode in m 5 minutes and announce that by sending the message "-p" to all users. -Otto

Hello David, david-mau...@netdefi.com (david-mau...@netdefi.com), 2018.02.19 (Mon) 12:09 (CET): > the result of the shutdown +5 -p command is unexpected : your use of shutdown(8) is unexpected, too; do you get the same result with shutdown -p +5? > Enter pathname of shell or return for sh This sounds like you were in single user mode; how did you get there? Did the OS reboot, run file system checks and failed? Please, read "man sendbug" and use sendbug(1). You have a working system before you use shutdown(8), right?

Since you neglected to include a dmesg, we must conclude your machine just isn't capable of doing a power down by software. -Otto
