After issuing 'shutdown now', I believe that you need to go to screen one (Alt-F1) where you're prompted for which shell to use and then dropped into single-user. If you don't go to screen one, then the machine will have the appearance of hanging.

"shutdown now" causes system to fall to single-user mode. If it reboots, stops it or switches the power off, your 4.2 was broken. /netch To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message --openmail-part-47e2cd16-00000001-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
