That would be my guess. Can you post your
/boot/grub/menu.lst?
As I mentioned in that ACPI thread:
I modified /boot/grub/menu.lst to:
## additional options to use with the default boot option,
but not with the
## alternatives
## e.g. defoptions=vga=791 resume=/dev/hda5
# defoptions=quiet splash
to
# defoptions=quiet splash acpi=force
and
## altoption boot targets option
## multiple altoptions lines are allowed
## e.g. altoptions=(extra menu suffix) extra boot options
## altoptions=(recovery mode) single
# altoptions=(recovery mode) single
to
# altoptions=(recovery mode) single acpi=force
That works (for me). I realize that others pointed to the
kopt option,
but I found that the defoptions & altoptions insert the
acpi=force properly.
You can also edit your menu.lst, take out the kopt
acpi=force, reboot &
see what happens. If it comes right up & you still have
problems
shutting down (the original acpi=force issue), then give my
suggestion a
try or edit 14 manually:
## ## End Default Options ##
title
root
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.20-14-generic
root=/dev/maper/yourmachinename-root
ro youroptions acpi-force
initrd
etc.
