Well, I tried to figure out what the intention of these lines really was. But they
didn't make any sense to me and, after scratching my head for far too long, I just
commented out the if...then statement, and just wrote in the arguements that I wanted
`halt` to see.
After reading your comments, I think maybe something like this was intended:
if [ -x /sbin/poweroff -o -x /sbin/halt ]; then
HALTARGS="$HALTARGS -p"
fi
I'll try this out the next time I'm at my laptop (the only machine I shutdown
regularly).
Thanks for your thoughts!
