Guest bugV Posted June 2, 2004 Report Share Posted June 2, 2004 HI, Entering "shutdown -h now" at the command prompt (root login) gives "Bad EIP value" and the shutdown process stops there. WHat does this mean and why does it occur? How does one solve it? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandrake_alf Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Not sure exactly but think it is somehow related to power management. I have an old gigabyte mb that no matter WHAT flavor of Linux i used on it, gave me the exact same message. BUT.. not to worry... the message always comes AFTER a clean dismount of your drives so there not flagged as dirty and don't require a chkdisk on the next boot... (at least mine never did). i just finally gave up and learned to push the off button like in the PRE ATX days.. cheers.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
