But it seems that this has worked for me in the past, when I was creating these 
through the GUI. In other words, after the OS installer reboots, it would 
correctly reboot in “normal” mode. Am I hallucinating that? 

In any case, I’m sure there’s a power-off API method, but I’m not sure how to 
reliably detect when to call it. I could do something hacky like call my own 
API endpoint as the last action of the installer somehow (I know how to with 
Debian, and I’m sure the RH family can do it as well), but that seems fragile.

Maybe hack the installer to power power off instead of reboot, and detect that? 
I hate the idea of having to fork/maintain my own installer patches...

What do other people do for automating this situation?
