RHEL 6 shutdown problem
Hi,
Since the time I installed RHEL6 on my Dell XPS laptop, I am facing a strange problem. After shutting down my machine It will never power off automatically. This machine hangs at line "System Halted.". While installation machine used to stop at line "Waiting for hardware to initialize". But I found solution on internet to solve that problem by using acpi=off. Now I don't know how to resolve this problem. Please help!! Thanks, Amit |
How are you trying to shut down your computer? Do you hit shutdown from the desktop?
|
I am trying shutdown from GNOME desktop. As well as I tried poweroff command couple of times.
I am having following hardware: Dell XPS laptop 1. i7 processor.Windows was showing 8 threads but RHEL showing me only 4. According to Dell specification this processor has 8 threads. 2. 500 GB hard disk 3. 4 GB RAM 4. 2 GB NVIDIA Graphics card Thanks, Amit |

Code:
shutdown now Code:
shutdown -h Code:
shutdown -h |
Code:
shutdown now Thanks, Amit |
So you mentioned before, did you append acpi=off to your boot command?
|
Sorry for late reply.
Yes, I gave acpi=off option while installing OS. Now this issue has been resolved after changing acpi=off to acpi=force in /etc/grub.conf. Also added option pci=noacpi in grub.conf. |
