They only suggest you use runlevel 3 until things are working well for you - easier to recover from problems. Once things are working well you can go back to runlevel 5. But it would be nice if there was a way to do a shutdown from a logged out runlevel 3 login prompt. ctl-alt-delete does a reboot and you have to catch it before it starts coming back up and hold down the power button. That business about stopping the hard drive before power goes off isn't strictly necessary, modern drives catch power down and swing the heads back to the safe zone automatically. // Wally
ctl-alt-del is controlled by /etc/inittab, just change to this # Trap CTRL-ALT-DELETE ca::ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t3 -h now Now it will shutdown instead of rebooting.
