I'm not able to replicate this with the jobs from the 0.3.8 release.
In 0.2.7, shutdown/halt was quite complex. On pressing the power
button, the following sequence of events would be emitted:
1. shutdown
- STOP rc0-6, rcS, rc0-halt, rc0-poweroff, rcS-sulogin
- STOP tty1-6
2. system-halt
- START rc0-halt
In theory, this means there is a small gap where no Upstart-recognised
services are running; which is why you get that root shell. The system
should continue to shut down anyway, since the next system-halt event
will start rc0 again, but for some reason this isn't happening.
This is no longer true in the 0.3.8 jobs, only a "runlevel 0" event is
emitted (repeatedly); and emitting it again will not stop or restart the
running rc0 script.
