I've been getting the same problem on FC5, and it seems to have happened after 
some updates. The original 2.16.15 kernel still shuts down the machine 
completely, but 2.6.17, and later kernels just hang at shutdown. It sounds 
like the harddrive has spun down, but the machine hasn't switched off. I have 
FC5 installs on the other machine that still havn't been updated with these 
updates that seem to have initiated this problem. There are a lot of updates 
waiting for these other 2 FC5 installs. Rather than getting apt-get to just 
do an apt-get upgrade and seeing this same problem again, has anyone any 
suggestions as to what package might be causing this sort of problem. I'm 
quite happy to install the packages one at a time , to try and discover which 
one is causing shutdown problems with kernels later than 2.6.15.
