System is locking up on shutdown every time. I even tried rebooting in run levels 5, 3, and single user. It locks every time right after the message "INIT: No more processes left in this run level" gets displayed to the console.
Nothing is showing up in /var/messages. Last entries before the next [manual] boot are:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aug 26 16:45:21 lsdev nfslock: rpc.statd shutdown succeeded
Aug 26 16:45:21 lsdev portmap: portmap shutdown succeeded
Aug 26 16:45:21 lsdev kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped.
Aug 26 16:45:21 lsdev kernel: Kernel log daemon terminating.
Aug 26 16:45:22 lsdev syslog: klogd shutdown succeeded
Aug 26 16:45:22 lsdev exiting on signal 15

My AS3 server does the same thing a lot when a AMD/NFS connection goes bad.
If the shutdown does not complete but you still have a root terminal open try looking if any NFS mounts are still up. If they are, go and manually umount all of them using the -f and -l (lazy) option, and specify '&' so umount runs in the background.... then do another shutdown -h now immediately after that.
