Hi Bernd, it's not a diskless client (only the Home directories and an MP3/Video share are mounted from the server).
Your suggestion to remove the -i flag seems to work partially: the lockd errors are gone, but the computer still doesn't power off after printing the Power Down line to the screen, and the "portmap: server localhost not responding, timed out" still show up after a long interval. I'm now going to rebuild the kernel and change some APM/ACPI related settings. By the way, the computer is an IBM 300 GL 6563-VCG: <http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/quickPath.do?quickPathEntry=6563-VCG&quickPathEntry.x=15&quickPathEntry.y=4> (I have included the relevant parts of the current kernel .config below) Thanks for your help, Stanley.
