There are 28 *.conf files there - are there any in particular that you customise?
I need to change /etc/asciidoc/lang-[LANG].conf e.g. to tweak the footer. It seems to be the only way, beside disabling header/footer completely by command line switches, or using asciidoctor for further customization.
I'm running Linux 4.8.11 here for no other reason than I wanted to try it. All seems to be well, except that the virtualbox kernel modules from SBo won't build on it. When I ran `make oldconfig` to configure the kernel build, it asked a whole bunch of questions, most of which were irrelevant to me, so I just used the defaults or said no (disable the feature), but it does apparently have some new power management settings. In my mostly non-scientific tests so far, it seems to be slightly better on power management than the 4.4 series on my Lenovo Thinkpad T430 laptop, both running TLP.
I would like to replace genpower with nut or have a powerdown hook at the end of rc.0.
I hate replying to myself.
After some thought, I think that a powerdown hook at the end of rc.0 is the way to go. I have some machines (just not the one with the UPS attached) with /usr as a different mount point than /. A hook would allow me to remount /usr read-only prior to doing anything else.

Any thoughts from others?
Just out of curiosity, what would you need to do at that point that couldn't be done in rc.local_shutdown? Does the file system need to be unmounted for the process you want to run? Does the system need to be right on the verge of either a reboot or a shutdown to run whatever in the hook call?
