    SubjectRe: Power off on shutdown not working in 2.2.0-pre9
    Hi all,

    Thank you all very much for suggesting possible causes and fixes to my
    problem.
    As it turns out all I had to do was change /etc/rc.d/init.d/halt script
    so that halt
    would be called with "-p" option.

    I have read through Changes file and it turns out that there are very
    few things that need
    to be upgraded on a RedHat 5.1 system in order to succesfully run kernel
    2.2.0.
    As the matter of fact I haven't upgraded any of them and compiled my
    kernel with egcs
    with "-mcpu=pentiumpro" and everything works like a charm anyway. With
    2.0.36 I was
    getting a LOT of warnings when I compiled with "-mcpu=pentiumpro". It
    still worked though.

    I also did the following:
    1) cd arch
    2) cp -R i386 i686
    3) cd i686
    4) edited Makefile to change every occurence of i386 to i686 except fo
    rhte first one (LD=$(CROSS_COMPILE)ld -m elf_i386)
    5) edited ifdef CONFIG_M686 so that -m486 changed to -mcpu=pentiumpro
    6) finally I edited the top level Makefile so that ARCH is set to i686

    It seems to work fine. Anyway, why shouldn't I take advantage of having
    a more advanced CPU?

    Thanks again for everyone's help.

    cheers,
    tomek
