When i issue the old
Code:
shutdown now

command i get the interesting error "Runlevel 1 does not exist"

(i think its one - im not there right now might be 0 but its the runlevel that it switches to on shutdown)
then i cant do anything till i press enter and a prompt comes back

its probably due to some stupid user error :roll:

hope it can be fixed without a re-install
even on p4 3.0Ghz that takes a while
thanks
