As a follow up, if I boot from a 10.04 live cd and try to shut down my system gets to the point of saying "remove the cd and press enter". However, the system will not shut down it just hangs there.
When I boot with 9.10 live cd and shut down it works as expected. After I remove the cd and press enter the machine shuts down normally. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/576204 Title: lucid doesn't shut down completely -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
