[oliverbeat]

hi
trying to reboot an lpar but it is hanging at the step
Wait for 'Rebooting...' before stopping

did ctrl C and the shutdown continue normally (next step stop errpt ...)

Do you know what is trying to do at the step " Wait for 'Rebooting...' before stopping" ?
Thanks in advance
Cheers

do you have an /etc/rc.shutdown ? if this script file does not exit 0, it will cause the shutdown to hang.
