As a part of this I need to tell the UPS to shutdsown. Obviously this must be _very late_ in the shutdown sequence. i have just found out by expiremantation the /etc/rc.shutdow is not late enough :-( (do you now how long it takes to fsck a 13G disk ?). Where in the shutdown sequence should I add this? The disks need to be dismounted, and / avaialble as read only at this point in time.
