Hi all,

"shutdown now" does not work on HEAD.  I don't know when it starts,
but it should be quite recent.
Symptom:

xanadu:~# shutdown now
Shutdown NOW!
shutdown: [pid 737]
xanadu:~#
*** FINAL System shutdown message from root at xanadu ***
System going down IMMEDIATELY
...
...
Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:
After the above line, "enter" does not work at all, and nothing could be input.
CTRL-ALT-DEL still works.
I tried this too yesterday and i had one more line after the "Enter full 
pathname" line:

init: can't exec   for single user: No such file or directory

This is coming from shutdown.
