if you are using halt, this command doesn't work anymore, you should use
one of these:

halt -p
poweroff
init 0
shutdown -P now

Ref.:

Thks for the pointer, didn't know that. However, when I tried manually I used 'poweroff', so it should have worked. Also, it fails even from desktop's "Power off" menu item.

Andre
