It's been my past experience that whenever the shutdown message says "COLD", trouble is ahead and the shutdown often crashes. I don't know what causes cold shutdowns instead of the normal warm shutdowns; hopefully upstream can figure out what's going on. > The problem seems to be repeatable.

Have you rebooted this system since? Can you reproduce the problem again after a reboot? -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
