Hi,
the pmac_power_off() call in pmac_halt() disappeared in 2.2.17.
Is there any special reason for that? I affects proably only B&W
machines, /sbin/halt doesnt work anymore.
Can we have it back?

Did you try "halt -p"?
bye, Roman

That might work, but why can I poweroff any other machine with halt?
(ibook, wallstreet, 7200?)

This was changed to make it consistent with the behaviour on other
architectures. Distributions should use halt -p in their init scripts
if power-off is required on shutdown.
