Shutdown vs Halt
Authored by: thatch on Feb 10, '02 06:21:41PM

sudo shutdown now has always worked for me and does give me single user mode. But one observation recently is that after exit, the system really stalls at initializing network from roughly 10 to 30 seconds. My normal startup doesn't do that but slightly stalls at configuring network, getting network time and starting firewall. Maybe that's just on my machine, G4 867, 896 Ram, OS 10.1.2.
