I originally posted with a problem with shutdown/reboot/halt under 1.3.41
but I've done a bit more investigating.

I've found shutdown/reboot/halt has problems on all kernel versions I've
tried after 1.3.37 (not just 41) - 39 41 42. 38 and 40 wouldn't compile
with my config.

Checking here it seems as though /etc/rc.d/rc.0 is not being run for
some reason.

The TERM and KILL lines are displayed to screen and then rc.0 would normally
be run to unmount disks displaying the unmounted message and Done!

NO unmounted and done messages appear.

Any advice anyone?
