halttype is either HALT or POWERDOWN, and the shutdown() function calls
init_setenv("INIT_HALT", halttype);. The only reference I can find to
INIT_HALT is in sysvinit’s debian/src/initscripts/etc/init.d/halt
Paul, could you clarify what’s the actual problem here? You did not say
whether anything actually went wrong, e.g. did your machine not power
off even though you requested it (but you said it _was_ powered off)?
